YSI 5120 - BOD Analyst Pro Desktop Software

BOD Analyst Pro ® software is PC Windows-based application software designed for use with YSI dissolved oxygen instrument systems. Using a serial interface the user defines parameters in the BOD Analyst Pro software that establishes two-way communication between instrument and PC. At the user’s command the software can acquire DO readings from the instrument, match initial and final DO readings, and perform appropriate calculations related to dilutions, seed correction, and other relevant factors. The software also allows the user to set test criteria, make notes, generate a report (bench sheet), plot data, and export data files. All data and information are securely stored in an MS Access Database.

The software also allows you to manually enter initial and final DO readings with instruments that are not connected to a computer. The program then completes the calculations much like a spreadsheet approach.

The program is easy to learn and use. Initial use requires less than an hour to set up. Setup includes installing the program on your PC, establishing communication with the YSI dissolved oxygen instrument, and configuring the system for your application. Once set up you will need just a few minutes each day to define exactly what you intend to do for that day whether it is building a new batch or reading final DO readings of an existing batch.
