Chapter 1 product introduction

1.1 Product Overview

The Dr. earth recorder developed and designed by our company adopts the latest
digital integrated circuit technology and international detection technology to design a
new intelligent handheld detector. The recorder adopts a large-scale full-color LCD
screen, which can display readings in real time. At the same time, it uses the detection
circuit designed by the digital chip of international manufacturers, which can achieve
very high sensitivity and excellent repeatability. Moreover, the recorder integrates
storage, recording and analysis, and can be flexibly connected to the company's soil
nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium sensor, soil conductivity, soil temperature and
humidity and other equipment to measure a variety of soil parameters.
The recorder is widely used in the detection of soil pH, dry farming and
water-saving irrigation, fine agriculture, forestry, geological exploration, plant
cultivation, water conservancy, environmental protection and other fields, as well as
the measurement of pH of various particles.

1.2 functional features

1) It can directly display the measurement results, which is simple and convenient,
low measurement cost and fast measurement speed.
2) Large color display screen and large capacity storage.
3) One click data export is convenient and fast.
4) The probe insertion design ensures accurate measurement and reliable
performance.

 Firstly, take out the aviation plug line, plug the aviation plug adapter line with
one to two line or one to three line, then plug the one to two line or one to three line
branch line with the soil equipment, support the simultaneous access of up to four soil
sensors, and finally connect the male end of the connected aviation plug line with the
aviation plug of Dr. soil recorder.

2.4 terminal instructions

2.4.1 quick measurement method
Select a suitable measuring location, avoid stones and ensure that the steel needle
will not touch hard objects. Throw away the topsoil according to the required
measuring depth, maintain the original tightness of the underlying soil, hold the
sensor tightly and insert it vertically into the soil. Do not shake left and right during
insertion. It is recommended to measure multiple times within a small range of a
measuring point to obtain the average value.

5
2.4.1 buried survey method
Dig the pit with diameter > 20cm vertically, insert the sensor steel needle
horizontally into the pit wall at the given depth, fill the pit tightly and stabilize it for a
period of time, and then measure and record for several days, months or even longer
