Intermittent data
During calibration, data is not sent to the datalog. Thus, the datalog can
have areas where the data is intermittent.
Test the conductivity sensor
If a calibration fails, first complete the maintenance procedures in
Maintenance on page 15.
1. Disconnect the sensor wires.
2. Use an ohmmeter to test the resistance between the sensor wires as
shown in Table 4.
Note: Be sure that the ohmmeter is set to its highest range for all infinite (open
circuit) resistance readings.

If one or more of the measurements is incorrect, call technical support.
Supply technical support with the serial number of the sensor and the
resistance values measured.

Option Description
SENSOR INFORMATION Shows the name and serial number that was entered
by the user.
CARD INFORMATION Shows the version and the serial number for the
sensor module.
CAL DAYS Shows the number of days since the last calibration.
CAL HISTORY Shows a list of the calibrations and the details for
each calibration.
RESET CAL HISTORY Service use only. Resets the calibration history for
the sensor. All previous calibration data is lost.
