Step to Use the ORP Meter

Cautions:

  1. Using the analog connection lines, connect the ORP meter board to analog port 1 of your Arduino controller. When the Arduino controller gets power,you will see the blue LED on board is on.
  2. Upload the sample code to the Arduino controller.(Note: At this time, a sentence in the sample program should be "#define OFFSET 0").
  3. Open the serial monitor of Arduino IDE , you will see the current ORP value.Press the calibration button and keep it pressed,you will see a small ORP vlaue printed on the serial monitor.Then according to this value, modify the offset in the sample program.For example,the serial print: "ORP: 8mV", then you should modify the sentence "#define OFFSET 0" to "#define OFFSET 8" in the sample code,then recompile the code and upload. At this time,you have completed the calibration.
  4. According to the graphic,the ORP electrode is connected to the BNC connector on the pH meter board.. After the calibration, the ORP electrode can measure the ORP value of the solution, through the serial monitor, you can see the current ORP value of the solution conveniently.
