YSI 600 SONDE SETUP<br />
When you attach a sonde to the sampler, you must configure the<br />
sampler’s hardware setup. The YSI 600 setup and calibration<br />
screens follow the rain gauge setup screens. You can configure the<br />
sampler for any or all of the YSI 600 readings: pH, Dissolved Oxygen,<br />
Conductivity, and Temperature. The conductivity readings<br />
represent one of the following:<br />
• Specific Conductance in mS/cm (millisiemens/centimeter)<br />
(Requires a specific conductance temperature coefficient)<br />
Salinity in parts-per-thousand<br />
Total Dissolved Solids (T.D.S.) in grams/liter<br />
(Requires a T.D.S. scale factor)<br />
Conductivity in mS/cm<br />
The YSI 600 setup screens are shown in Extended Programming:<br />
YSI 600 Screens on page 131. Consult the YSI 600 manual for specific<br />
conductance temperature coefficients and T.D.S. scale factors.<br />
When connecting to the sonde, the <strong>6700</strong> sampler will check the<br />
software version of the sonde. If the sampler finds an incompatible<br />
version, it reports “INCOMPATIBLE SONDE SOFTWARE!<br />
UPGRADE TO VERSION 2.11 OR NEWER.” Contact the factory<br />
or your representative if your sonde requires a software upgrade.<br />
YSI 600 Sonde Communications Test<br />
The “TEST YSI 600 COMMUNICATIONS?” screen appears during<br />
the YSI 600 Hardware Setup if the <strong>6700</strong> has not successfully<br />
communicated with the Sonde.<br />
If you answer YES, the sampler evaluates the communications<br />
link with the sonde and then sets the YSI 600 data transfer protocol.<br />
It is important that you allow the sampler to complete the<br />
test; damage to the YSI 600 Sonde could result if power is interrupted<br />
during the communications test.<br />

YSI 600 Sonde Calibration<br />
The YSI 600 Sonde requires initial and periodic calibration.<br />
Table 11 lists the supported calibration methods. Refer to the<br />
YSI 600 Sonde <strong>Manual</strong> for calibration procedures. The <strong>6700</strong> also<br />
can support the YSI 6820 and 600XL Sondes when the program<br />
option is enabled. Refer to Chapter 6 for more information about<br />
the additional YSI sondes, and to Figure 46 for the menu charts.<br />
