    Do you see the big button where it says "Change measurement range"? Hit that one and click "yes" on the popup window. Now you are ready to calibrate.[/QUOTE

    Thank you for taking the time to post the picture, But no i don't see that box and i have the latest software, I guess now the question is why i dont see it, Could this be because i am using an expansion box?

    Have you downloaded all the manuals.

    ProfiLux31all_Manual_2013-11-07.pdf
    Programming guide_V611.pdf
    Programmable_logic.pdf

    " Page in the programming guide.
    2.12 Measurement range
    For certain measurement inputs the measurement range can be set.
    Temperature
    Here, the measurement range can be selected according to the connected temperature sensor. There are 2 types of
    water temperature sensors:
    Aquarium – Measurement range ca. 11.5 °C up to 38 °C
    Pond – Measurement range ca. 0 °C up to 40 °C
    As default setting the measurement range is set to Aquarium. Change the measurement range only if you connect a
    sensor for ponds! If measurement range and the used sensor are not conform, then false temperatures are measured!
    Conductivity
    If the concerned input is an onboard-input of ProfiLux Plus II eX resp. of ProfiLux 3/3.1 eX, then the measurement
    range can be changed here – for Sea water or Fresh water. Please keep in mind that with the change of the
    measurement range all settings for this input get lost and are reset to the default settings."

    So go to GCC.
    Go to Measurement probes.
    Go to conductivity tab
    Got to button on page which says change measurement range.
    Once you have clicked on it, it will give you a warning. Select yes and then the system will probably disconnect.
    Connect again and you will be in the upper range.
    Then calibrate as per your above message.

    I assume that you have the platinum probe? This is for a marine environment. The carbon probe should only be used in a fresh water environment.

    Now of course if you actually run a fresh water aquarium. You just need to get a different test solution to suit.

    NOTE: I do not work for GHL!. I am just a user of the product like you.
    Thank you for the time and effort but as you can see i dont have that option so its really not that basic, What is the work around for this ?

    Very interesting
    I don't see the box that says
    "change measurement range..."
    Maybe GHL can chime in on this one

    Ok that is interesting.
    Is this a Profilux 3 Ex or a add on board.
    If an add on board, is it installed in a expansion box.

    And of course GHL will need to look at this.

    There is a switch on the Expansion Box, you can change from freshwater to saltwater:

    Thank you for the reply, yes I did that already but nothing changed was I supposed to do something else after pushing the switch to the left under the letter S ?

    After you set the switch you have to reasign the expansion box in the ProfiLux menu.
    System -> Configure PAB -> assign devices.
    First you remove the x mark from the expansion box and save it. Then assign the Expansion Box again.
