The procedure is very simple.
Go into calibration mode by using the joystick and selecting pH Calibration.
Dip the probe into the pH 7.0 and let it stabilize.
I like to just write down the numbers on the screen just for future reference and use if needed.
Rinse and dry.
Dip it into the pH 10.0 solution and let it stabilize.
You are done. Just click OK.
I pulled my new probe out of the box and removed the litle bottle of fluid. There looks to be a small clear bubble of fluid on the actual probe pin...is that supposed to be there? Thx

Yes. It's a glass bulb which is the sensing part of the probe.
