button to open settings screen.
(See Figure 36)
Confirm the following
Setups
are selected:
• Density Type: Solid
• Auxiliary Liquid: Water
• Porous Material: Off
Press
BACK
to return to the density determination home
screen.
Follow the same procedure as solid material above,
except in density determination step two, push the

MEASURING THE DENSITY OF A SOLID USING AN
AUXILIARY LIQUID
To enable this feature, enter the density determination
setup menu and select the following:
• Density Type: Solid
• Auxiliary Liquid Type: Other
• Porous Material: Off
Confirm the default values displayed (liquid density, etc)
are correct. (See Figure 37)
To adjust the liquid density value, touch the

, then press
SAVE
. The display
returns to the previous screen. To return to the density
determination home screen, touch
BACK
.
Begin the density determination process as per above.
MEASURING THE DENSITY OF A LIQUID USING A
CALIBRATED SINKER
(not supplied)
To enable this feature, enter the density setup menu
and select the following;
Density Type: Liquid
.
(See Figure 39)
NOTE: when the density type is set to Liquid, the
liquid type and porous material selections are
disabled.
Confirm that the default value displayed (sinker volume) is
correct. To edit the default values, touch
