P1.1 Selection of pH buffers
Access this setup to select the buffer family for performing the electrode calibration.

paragraph). The instrument automatically recognizes 2 families of buffers (USA and NIST); in addition, the
user has the option of performing a manual calibration up to 2 points with customizable values.
USA Buffers: 1,68 - 4,01 - 7,00** - 10,01 - 12,45 (Factory setting)
NIST Buffers: 1,68 - 4,00 - 6,86** - 9,18 - 12,46
**Neutral point always requested as first
In measure mode at the bottom left of the display, a series of beakers
indicates the buffers with which the last automatic and manual
calibration was carried out.
P1.2 Resolution
Access this menu to choose the resolution needed when reading the
pH parameter:
 0.1
0.01 -default-

P1.3 Stability criteria in pH measurement
To consider the reading of a value truthful, we recommend waiting for the measurement stability, indicated
by the icon . When the measurement is not stable, four red flashing bands
Access this menu to change the measurement stability criterion:
"LOW": choose this option to bring up the stability icon
Readings included within 1.2 mV.
"MEDIUM" (default value): readings included within 0.6 mV.
"HIGH": choose this option to display the stability icon only in conditions of high measurement stability,
readings within 0.3 mV.
P1.6 pH calibration data
Acess this menu to view (select "VIEW") or print (select "PRINT") information on the last calibration
performed:
VIEW: The following screens will scroll automatically on the display:

 First screen: CALIBRATION DATE and TIME and beakers indicating the buffers used.
 Second screen: OFFSET value of the electrode expressed in mV.
Third and possibly fourth screen: Slope% in the measuring range (one Slope% only if two

calibration points are performed, two Slope% if three points are performed).
Note: The instrument accepts calibrations with pH electrodes with Slope% between 80 - 120% only.
Outside this range of acceptability, the instrument does not allow to end the calibration and displays the
error message SLOPE OUT OF RANGE.
