Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems with your KD2 Pro, refer to the
following items to see if they resolve your problem.
PROBLEM: I am getting poor or inconsistent readings.
SOLUTION:
Review section 5 of this manual.
PROBLEM: The KD2 Pro says it does not recognize the
connected sensor.
SOLUTION:
Make sure the connection between the sensor
and the KD2 Pro is secure, and that none of the connector
pins are bent or broken off. If the KD2 Pro still fails to recog-
nize the sensor, the sensor may be malfunctioning. Contact
Decagon for more assistance.
Verifying Sensor Performance
With your KD2 Pro, you have received three standard materi-
als with which you can verify that your KD2 Pro is working
correctly and maintaining accuracy: a clear vial of glycerin
(glycerol) for the KS-1 Sensor, a white plastic cylinder for the
SH-1 needle sensor and a black plastic cylinder for the TR-1
single needle sensor.
The glycerol should be used to verify performance of the KS-
1 sensor. The cap of the vial is equipped with a septum allow-
ing direct insertion of the needle into the vial through the cap.
