About Calibration and Settings You can perform sensor calibrations, view a calibration report, or restore factory calibration defaults when the instrument is connected to VuSitu. 1. Tap the VuSitu menu icon, and select Connected Instrument from the list. 2. Tap Calibrations. 3. The available calibrations and sensor settings appear. 4. Tap the calibration you want to perform. You can also access the full Calibration Report from this menu. Calibrate the Rugged Dissolved Oxygen Sensor (1-Point) The optical Rugged Dissolved Oxygen sensor is very stable. The factory calibration should produce readings within 3% accuracy. If you require readings with greater accuracy we recommend that you perform a 1-point, 100% water-saturated air calibration as described below. 100% Water-saturated Air Calibration 1. From the main menu, select Calibration & Settings. 2. From the Calibrations menu select RDO Saturation. 3. For a 1-point calibration, select 100% Saturation. 4. Make sure the vented cap is installed on the calibration cup and a water-saturated sponge is placed in the bottom of the cup.

6. The calibration values are applied to the sensor and appear on screen. You can view a full calibration report for all sensors, or select Done to return to the Calibration Menu. 7. Remove the sponge from the calibration cup. Calibrate the Rugged Dissolved Oxygen Sensor (2-Point) We recommend that you perform the 0 % oxygen calibration only if you intend to measure dissolved oxygen at a concentration of less than 4 mg/L. 100% Water-saturated Air Calibration 1. From the main menu, select Calibration & Settings. 2. From the Calibrations menu select RDO Saturation. 3. For a 2-point calibration, select 100% and 0% Saturation. 4. Make sure the vented cap is installed on the calibration cup and a water-saturated sponge is placed in the bottom of the cup. 5. After the calibration is stable, a prompt to prepare for the next calibration point appears. 0-point Calibration 1. Remove the sponge from the calibration cup. 2. Fill the calibration cup to the fill line with sodium sulfite. Place the instrument in the calibration cup.

4. After the calibration is stable, select Accept. 5. The calibration values are applied to the sensor and appear on screen. You can view a full calibration report for all sensors, or select Done to return to the Calibration Menu. 6. Rinse the sensors and restrictor with DI water. Calibrating the Rugged Dissolved Oxygen Sensor Using Concentration The preferred method of calibrating the RDO sensor is using the 1-point 100% Saturation calibration. However, you can also calibrate the sensor using a concentration method. 1. From the main menu, select Connected Instrument. 2. Select Calibrations. 3. Tap RDO Concentration. 4. Place the instrument in reference solution and tap Next. 5. Enter the value of the reference solution. 6. After the calibration is stable, select Accept. 7. The calibration values are applied to the sensor and appear on screen. You can view a full calibration report for all sensors, or select Done to return to the Calibration Menu. RDO Salinity Setting The SmarTROLL RDO does not include automatic salinity compensation, so you must set it manually. 1. From the main menu, select Connected Instrument. 2. Select Instrument Settings.

4. Select the appropriate setting for your sampling environment. Care and Maintenance Maintenance Schedule For best results, send the instrument to the manufacturer for factory calibration every 12 to 18 months. User-Serviceable Parts The user-serviceable parts on the instrument include the O-rings, and the RDO Sensor Cap. O-rings The instrument has several O-rings that can be maintained by the user in order to keep moisture from entering the instrument and damaging the electronics. Apply a very thin layer of vacuum grease to new O-rings upon installation. The O-rings are located in the following areas. 1 Connector (1) 2 Instrument housing (1) 3 RDO Sensor Cap (2) RDO Fast Sensor Cap Replacement The RDO Fast Sensor Cap has a 1-year typical life (15 months of total usage) after the sensor takes its first reading, or 36 months from the date of manufacture. Follow the instructions included in the RDO Sensor Cap Replacement Kit. Replacement caps are available from In-Situ Inc. or your authorized In-Situ distributor.
