Getting Started:
Checking ECO Meter Functionality

When shipped from the factory, ECOs are configured to begin continuously sampling upon power-on. Here's how to check functionality.

What you'll need:
•  Your ECO meter.
• a 12V regulated power supply, or the optional the test cable and 9V battery that shipped with the meter. (Note the cable at left is for an FLNTU, which has two analog outputs.)


Test cable: Connect the 6-socket connector on the test cable to the instrument to provide power.
Connect the battery leads on the test cable to the 9V battery supplied with the meter.

12V power supply: connect or touch the black connector to pin 1 (gnd) and the red connector to pin 4 (V in).

For meters with internal batteries: use the jumper plug labeled "power switch" to supply power to the meter.

Light should emanate from the meter.

 

Meters with analog output (Fluorometer, Fluorometer/Turbidity sensor, Single-channel Scattering sensor): Connect a digital multimeter (DMM) to the auxiliary leg(s) of the test cable: the center of the RCA connector provides analog out signal and the outside provides ground.
