    If you do not see the KH Director as a selectable option in the PROBE/SENSOR CONTROL category, your Standalone doser may be in need of a firmware update.

    Mark,

    The pH reading provided by the KHD is irrelevant to your tank's actual pH. The pH value provided is only for diagnostic purposes as mentioned in the text below.

    If you're doubting the KH value provided by the KHD, recalibrate the probe and check to make sure ALL 3 pumps were calibrated correctly. The length of the water sample tube will also cause incorrect KH readings if it was not measured correctly; length of tube that goes around the pump head should also be accounted for.
