User manual
The stick is illuminated with an LED and a detector registers the intensity of
light reflected by the test stick at three different wavelengths. Using an
internal calibration, the results are calculated from the reflection values.
Whenever samples are strongly alkaline, a density correction is
automatically conducted.
2.1.2 Functional Principle
A measurement is started by placing a strip on the holder. If the Autostart-
feature is turned off, the measurement is started by pressing the start panel
in the display.
The result is shown on the display, printed out and released via the
interfaces after the measurement has been completed. After three minutes
the instrument will go to stand-by. Touching the screen will reactivate the
instrument.
All user inputs are performed via the touch-screen (3.7 Use of the
instrument).
