Apera TDS 20 meter

Anyone know how to switch from 700 scale to 500?

If measuring EC, then the scaling is not addressed but on a table used to convert EC to PPM. No change in the meter is necessary.

The manual says it can be switched but it doesnt show how really. Since im using general hydroponics nutrients I wanted it to read the 500 scale instead of 700. Make life easier lol

@Audiofreak Glad I could help

I love 4 steps to accomplish one thing. I like my Apera PH20 pen but use the Bluelab conductivity pen for TDS/PPM. It has a separate button for units 500 700 F C. My brain can handle that.

Yeah,I kinda wish I went with a bluelab TDS meter instead. I love my apera ph meter though.

Now that it is figured out and the learning curve is behind you, it will be a good piece of equipment to have.
