Checking Electrical Signal Continuity and Electrode Isolation

It is recommended that you routinely check the EC signal to verify that all functions are

working properly. See Maintenance and Lubrication Section for a step-by-step

procedure. It is advisable to perform this test on a routine basis (weekly or every 20-25

hours of data collection) to ensure you are obtaining reliable data.

piston (Figure 7) Set probe speed --- not recommended over 3cm/sec. This is

adjustable via the probe speed flow control on the side of the control panel. (Figure 9)

below the surface of the soil. Press LOG in the EC – Force software to begin collecting

data. After reaching the desired depth pull probe out to stop logging data.
