Push ENTER when signal averaging is on to erase data in the signal
averaging buffer and provide an immediate update on the display as
necessary. This is especially useful when measuring samples with large
differences in turbidity.
To change the number of measurements that are used to calculate the
average reading (default=10):
1. Push SETUP. The SETUP light turns on.
2. Select 09 using the arrow keys.
3. Push ENTER.
4. Use the arrow keys to select the number of measurements—1 to 15.
Note: If a number greater than 15 is selected, 15 measurements will be used.
5. Push ENTER.
6. Push SETUP.
Ratio on or off
Ratio on provides very good linearity, calibration stability and a wide
measurement range. Ratio on helps correct for interference when color
is present in the sample that absorbs at the wavelength of incident light.
The manufacturer recommends that Ratio on be used for most
measurements. Ratio must be on to measure samples greater than
40 NTUs (268 nephelos or 9.8 EBCs).
Ratio can be turned on for NTU, EBC, NEP and ASC -1- and -2-
measurements.
Push RATIO to turn Ratio on or off. The Ratio light is on when Ratio is
on.
Notes:
• If the sample being measured is greater than 40 NTU (or equivalent)
and Ratio is off, the display will show 9s and the RATIO light will flash.
Push RATIO to turn Ratio on and remove the over-range condition.
• Measurements with Ratio on and measurements with Ratio off are
almost the same for turbidity measurements that are less than 40 NTU
if interferences caused by color or light absorbing particles are not
present.
