Calibration and Measurement

DO Calibration in Options

Reset calibration

a) Reset 100% calibration.
The user write 0x0220 = 8
b) Reset 0% calibration.
The user write 0x0220 = 16
c) Reset temperature calibration.
The user write 0x0220 = 32

1-point calibration

1-point calibration means calibrating the probe in the point of100 % saturation, which can be obtained by one of the following means:

a) In air-saturated water (standard method).

The air-saturated water (for example of 500 mL) can be obtained by continuously (1) purging water with air using an air bubbler or some type of aeration about 3 ~ 5 minutes, or (2) stirring water by magnetic stirrer under 800 rpm for 1 hour.

After air-saturated water is ready, immerse the sensor cap and temperature sensor of the probe in the air-saturated water, and calibrate probe after the reading becomes stable (usually 1 ~ 3 minutes).

The user write 0x0220 = 1 , then waiting 30 seconds.

If the final reading of 0x0102 is not in 100 ± 0.5%, please check if the stability of current testing environment or try again.

b) In water-saturated air (convenient method).

Alternatively, the 1-pt calibration can be easily done using water-saturated air, but 0 ~ 2% error might be caused depending on different operations. The recommended procedures are given as below:

i) immerse the sensor cap and temperature sensor of the probe in fresh/tap water 1~2 minutes.
ii) get out the probe and quickly dip dry the water on the surface of sensor cap by tissue.
iii) install the sensor end in the calibration/storage bottle with a wet sponge inside. Avoid direct contact of the sensor cap with any water in the calibration/storage bottle during this calibration step. Keep the distance between the sensor cap and the wet sponge being ~ 2 cm.
v) wait for the readings to stabilize (2 ~ 4 minutes ) and then write 0x0220 = 2.

2-point calibration (100% and 0% saturation points)

(i) Put the probe in air-saturated water, write 0x0220 = 1 after the DO reading stabilizes.
(ii) After DO reading becomes 100%, move the probe to zero oxygen water (use sodium sulfide added in excess to a
water sample).
(iii) Write 0x0220 = 2, after the DO reading stabilizes (~at least 2 mins).

  • (iv) The user reading saturation at 0x0102 for 1-point calibration, 0x0104 for 2-point calibration.
    2-point cal is not necessary for most applications, unless users need a very accurate measurement in low DO concentration (<0.5 ppm).

  • Enforcement of “0% calibration” without “100% calibration” is not allowed.

Point calibration for temperature

i) The user write 0x000A = the ambient temperature x100 (Ex: If the ambient temperature = 32.15, then the user write 0x000A=3215).
ii) The user reading temperature at 0x000A . If it is equal to what you inputted, the calibration is done. If not, please try Step 1 again.

Modbus RTU Protocol

Command structure:
  • Commands should not be sent sooner than 50mS from the completion of the last response.
  • If the expected response from the slave is not seen for > 25mS, throw a communication error.
  • Probe follows Modbus standard for functions 0x03, 0x06, 0x10, 0x17
Serial Transmission structure:
  • Data types are big-endian unless otherwise noted.
  • Each RS485 transmission will have: one start bit,8 data bits, no parity bit , and two stop bits;
  • Default Baud rate: 9600 (some of the probes may have the Baudrate of 19200);
  • Default Slave address: 1
  • The 8 data bits transmitted after the start bit are the most significant bit first.
  • Bit Sequence
Start bit 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Stop bit
Timing
  • Firmware updates must be run within 5 seconds of power on or soft reset Probe tip LED will be solid blue during this time
  • First command cannot be run earlier than 8 seconds from power on or soft reset
  • If there is no expected response from an issued command timeout occurs after 200ms

Maintenance

Probe maintenance includes cleaning the sensor cap, as well as the proper conditioning, preparation, and storage of the test system.

When the probe is not in use, it is highly recommended to store the probe with its sensor cap installed and the calibration/storage bottle which was included in the original packaging, threaded onto the probe. A beaker of clean water or a moist/humid capping mechanism can also suffice if the calibration/storage bottle is not available. The sponge inside the calibration/storage bottle should be kept moist for best results.

Avoid sensor cap touching organic solvent, scratching, and abusive collisions to strengthen and lengthen the working life of the sensor cap. Special care should be taken to clean the coating of cap, to dip probe and cap in fresh water, and then to tap dry the surface with a tissue. Do not wipe the coating surface.

Replace the sensor cap, if the cap coating is faded or stripped away. DO NOT touch the clear window on the probe tip after unscrewing the old cap. If any contaminants or residue are present on the window or inside the cap, carefully remove them with a powder free wipe. Then re-screw the new sensor cap onto the probe.
