5.0 START-UP AND OPERATION
5.1 Password

press of CALL you will step through the menu. When the last item is reached the
menu wraps around to “%sat/ppm”. If you have enabled PASSWORD by placing
DIP Switch 2 Bank S1, in the off position you must enter the password “6” when
PASSWORD is indicated if you wish to change any stored value. You do not need
to enter the password to proceed to other items in the menu for recall of stored
values.
If PASSWORD has not been enabled you do not need to enter the password to
change stored values.
5.2 Percent Saturation/ppm

ppm.

5.3 Calibration

results a bubbler such as that used in a tropical fish tank should be in the container.

to remove it from the float if so installed.)
