    Dissolved oxygen calibration in percent saturation you can calibrate this meter quickly and easily in air. The exact calibration value depends on barometric pressure. The meter is set to a factory default of 760 mm hg, which results in a calibration value of 100% saturation in air. Note: if the baro...

    Dissolved oxygen calibration in mg/l (ppm) mode calibrating the meter to 100 % in saturation mode will also calibrate the mg/l mode at the value in mg/l corresponding to 100% saturation. This should produce acceptable results in most applications. This meter also lets you make a calibration adjustme...
