UNATTENDED DEPLOYMENTS

1. Install the 6150 ROX optical DO sensor into a spare optical sensor port.

2. Connect the sonde to a PC. At the command prompt # type “MDO 1”. This command will allow

both the Rapid Pulse and the ROX DO sensors to sample simultaneously.

Note: MDO = Multiple Dissolved Oxygen. (1/ enable, 0/disable)

3. Enable the ROX sensor in the sonde’s Sensor Menu.

4. Enable the % and mg/l outputs in the sonde’s Report Menu.

5. Enable the sonde’s “Auto Sleep RS-232” and “Auto Sleep SDI-12” settings found in the

Advanced Menu under Setup.

6. Confirm that the sonde’s Rapid Pulse DO warm-up time is set to 60 seconds. This is found in the

sonde’s Advanced Sensor Menu.

7. Recondition and prepare the Rapid Pulse DO sensor with a new membrane and confirm that all

diagnostics -- charge, gain, and Warm-up -- meet specifications.

8. Run the sonde in “Discrete Run Mode” at a four-second rate for 15 minutes to burn in the Rapid

Pulse sensor. Run in saturated air.

9. Calibrate the Rapid Pulse DO sensor in saturated air as you normally would. DO NOT

CALIBRATE THE OPTICAL DO PROBE AT THIS TIME!

10. Calibrate all other sensors and record pre-deployment and QA data.

11. The YSI factory-generated ROX DO calibration coefficients will automatically be transferred

into the sonde at initial sensor power up.

12. Start the sonde logging for the “Unattended Study” and place in the saturated water bath

described in the next steps.

13. Check logged data after one hour and record the time of your observation. If the Rapid Pulse DO

sensor reads more than 2% higher than its saturated air calibration point, then you could have a

defective or leaking membrane. Check for air bubbles, wrinkles, punctures, or a loose-fitting

membrane retainer o-ring.
