55Ion Setup: Auto Read Mode / Ion Stability CriteriaXL25, 50 and 60 metersSelect Auto Read ModeYou can use this meter when the Auto Read function is active or when it is inactive. When theAuto Read function is active, the meter will lock onto a reading when the meter recognizes it asstable. The meter will not deviate from this reading until Measure is touched. If the Auto Readfunction is inactive, then the meter will continuously monitor the concentration of the ion ofinterest. The Measure screen display will indicate any fluctuation in the ion concentration.To select Auto Read Mode1. Touch MANUAL or AUTO to choose the desired read mode.Set Ion Stability CriteriaThis setup screen allows you to determine how quickly the meter will respond to electrode drift.There are three speed settings: fast, medium and slowTo set Ion Stability Criteria1. Touch FAST, MEDIUM, SLOW to choose the desired stability criteria.Regardless of the status of the Auto Read Mode, STABLE will be displayed as the meterrecognizes the measurement as stable.Stability criteria are more stringent at the slower setting. Therefore, if the highest precision isrequired, then a slow setting would be desired. The default setting is the FAST and this shouldbe adequate for the majority of applications without making any changes.
