resuming operation.
3. If unsatisfactory results are gained after doing the above, notify
your Jenco representative for possible repair or replacement (See

1. The [ON/OFF] key. This key will turn on or turn off the
instrument. The last display mode will be saved, except during
calibration where it will default to Conductivity display.
2. The [MODE] key. In normal operation this key will change the
display to Conductivity, compensated Conductivity and Salinity
displays. In Calibration mode this key will exit the current
calibration and go to the next calibration parameter.
3. The [CAL] key. During normal operation this key will change the
mode from normal to Calibration mode. See CALIBRATION
SET-UP.
4. The [ENTER] key. During Conductivity and compensated
Conductivity operation this key will change from Auto Ranging to

Manual Ranging. During Auto Ranging the AUTO annunciator
will be displayed.
5. The [ ∆ ] key. This key is used during Calibration to increment the
value/option of the display.
6. The [ ∇ ] key. This key is used during Calibration to decrement
the value/option of the display.

REPLACING THE BATTERIES
1. Position the meter so that the bottom part of the meter is facing
up . (Refer to figure 5.) Insert a coin in the side closure slot. Tilt the
coin and thrust it upward to open the battery compartment and lift
the closure up.
2. Remove all of the old batteries and insert a new set of batteries
ensuring the polarities are correct.

TURNING ON/OFF THE INSTRUMENT
After the unit is turned on the unit will display all segments for a
few seconds then it will display the current cell constant. If the
instrument detects a internal problem it will display an error
message for a few seconds. You can learn about these error
messages by consulting the ERROR DISPLAYS of this manual.

AUTORANGING
After immersing the probe into the solution , the instrument will be
place in a search routine to find the right range for the solution, this
autoranging will take as long as 5 seconds. During this search the
instrument will display "RANG" on the LCD to indicate it is
searching for the right range.

RS232C INTERFACE OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
This section assumes you are familiar with the basics of data
communication, the RS232C interface, a rudimentary knowledge
and a copy of the following computer languages: Turbo BASIC,
Quick BASIC, Turbo PASCAL and Turbo C.
After you have connected the cable and turned on both the meter
and the computer, you are now ready for the software preparation.

Here are some standard solutions the user can prepare to calibrate
the probe of the model 3250.

74.2640 grams of research grade dried Potassium Chloride (KCl).
Dissolve in 1000ml of deionized water
STORAGE
You can store the remaining solution in a plastic container for one
week but the air space between the cap and the solution must be
kept to an absolute minimum. The storage life can be increased by
storing the solution below 4°C. If you have any doubt of the
accuracy of the stored solution, a fresh batch should be prepared.
