6.0CALIBRATION

6.1Manual Output Mode

To perform calibrations without interfering with control or recorder functions, the LXT-230 incorporates a manual output mode. The current output is set to the desired level and saved until changed or released from the manual mode.

NOTE: Prior to any calibration the LXT-230 transmitter should be placed into the manual mode.

Procedure:

1.If not at the Main Menu, press the appropriate MENU SELECTION key to reach the Main Menu.

2.Press both horizontal CALIBRATE keys simultaneously to enter the calibrate mode and observe the "M" appear in front of the % current output value; The current output is now locked in the manual mode.

3.Using the horizontal CALIBRATE keys, position the cursor under the digit to be adjusted.

4.Increase or decrease the value by pressing the appropriate vertical CALIBRATE key.

5.When the desired value is reached, exit the calibrate mode by pressing either MENU SELECTION key. The current output will be held at the filed value.

To release manual output:

1.Return to the Main Menu by pressing the appropriate MENU SELECTION key.

2.Observe that the "M" appears in front of the % current output value. The "M" signifies that the output is being held at the displayed value.

3.Press the left-hand CALIBRATE key and observe the "M" disappear, releasing the LXT-230 from the manual output mode. The % output value will return to the real- time current output.

6.2Contrast Adjustment

Procedure:

1.Press the upper MENU SELECTION key to reach the Contrast Menu (upper most menu).

2.Press both horizontal CALIBRATE keys simultaneously to enter the calibrate mode. Observe the cursor move to the last digit.

3.Using the horizontal CALIBRATE keys, position the cursor under the digit to be adjusted.

4.Increase or decrease the value by pressing the appropriate vertical CALIBRATE key.

5.To file the contrast value and exit the calibrate mode, press either MENU SELECTION key.

6.3One-Point Buffer Calibration (Standardize)

Because all pH and ORP electrodes experience minor variations, buffer calibrations are necessary before installing the electrodes in service. Also, occasional calibrations are necessary to compensate for electrode degradation while in service. For measurement specifics, refer to the pH/ORP sensor manual.
