TROUBLESHOOTING WITH THE METER CHECK DISK
IMPORTANT!! Do not attempt to separate the components of the Meter Check Disk (Code
1705). The Meter Check Disk consists of a disk with a permanently attached cover. Do not fill
the Meter Check Disk with water. Water is not used in the Meter Check Disk.
CALIBRATION OPERATIONS The Meter Check Disk (MCD) is used to perform two calibration
operations – Check Calibration and Start Calibration. The Start Calibration procedure should only
be performed if the meter fails the Check Calibration procedure.
Check Calibration Meters are calibrated at the time of manufacture. However, it is possible for
the calibration settings to be lost due to power anomalies or other circumstances. The Meter
Check Disk is used in the Check Calibration procedure to determine whether the alignment of the
hub and disk are correct. For some meters, it also evaluates the brightness of the individual LEDs.
1. Follow the CLEANING procedure to clean the light chamber and optic lenses.
2. From the main test page, tap
3. Tap Calibration.
4. Tap Check Calibration.
5. Remove the Meter Check Disk (Code 1705) from the foil pouch. DO NOT remove the black
cover from the disk. Insert the Meter Check Disk (MCD) into the meter and close the lid.
6. Tap Start.
7. The meter will briefly spin. When it is complete, six channel values will be displayed. Compare
the displayed channel values to those printed on the MCD pouch. If the displayed channel
values are within the ranges provided on the Meter Check Disk pouch, the meter is calibrated
and performing normally. If the displayed channel values are not within the ranges provided on
the Meter Check Disk pouch, perform the Start Calibration procedure.
Note: Range specifications are specific to the disk identified by the serial number on the
pouch. The range specifications will vary from disk to disk. The exact readings from a specific
disk may vary from meter to meter.
8. Tap
to return to the test screen.
9. Remove the MCD from the meter and return to the foil pouch for storage.
Start Calibration The Start Calibration procedure calibrates the alignment of the hub and disk
for all meters and sets the brightness of the individual LEDs for compatible meters. Before
performing this calibration procedure, run the Check Calibration procedure to determine whether
the meter is calibrated and operating normally. The Start Calibration procedure should only be
completed if the meter fails the Check Calibration procedure.
1. Follow the CLEANING procedure to clean the light chamber and optic lenses.
2. From the main test screen, tap
3. Tap Calibration.
4. Tap Start Calibration.
5. Remove the Meter Check Disk (Code 1705) from the foil pouch. DO NOT remove the black
cover from the disk. Insert the Meter Check Disk. Close the lid.
6. Tap Start.
7. When the calibration is complete the message "Angle Calibration Successful" will appear.
Meters that can also perform an LED calibration will display "LED Calibration Successful".
8. Tap
to return to the test screen.
Angle Calibration checks the alignment of the hub and disk. The LED Calibration sets the
brightness of the individual LEDs. The results are reported as pass or fail. If the measurements
pass, the settings will be saved, and the meter is calibrated. If the analysis fails, contact Support.

HELPFUL HINTS
¬ Do not touch top or bottom of disk. Handle disk by the edge.
¬ Do not fill disk while in the meter. Fill disk on clean, dry surface.
¬ Fill the disk on a dark surface to more easily see the sample water.
