EC/TDS ?s about conversion...

i gotta a new tester and it reads 155ppm x10 and the EC is 303 x10..or maybe it was vice versa...how do i convert this type or measurement to 2.2EC or whatever ...damnit plz help me read this thing im confused...

b4 i submerdge it say 0.0 ec...then after i submerdge it read 300-302 with a little x10 flashing...

HERES THE SPECS:

Brand New - HM DIGITAL COM-100 Waterproof EC/TDS/Temp Combo Meter

FEATURES

Measures electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS) and temperature.
Three different calibration options (KCl, 442TM, NaCl), each with its own non-linear conversion factor.
Automatic Temperature Compensation (ATC) using three temperature coefficients
Waterproof housing
Measurement Range: 0-9990 µS; 0-8560 ppm (auto-ranging).
Digital Calibration (push button)
Auto-off function, data-hold function and low-battery indicator.
Display: large and easy-to-read LCD screen includes simultaneous temperature reading.
Factory Calibrated: The COM-100 meter is calibrated with a 1413 µS solution. The meter can be recalibrated with digital calibration using the push buttons, rather than a screwdriver.
Includes a cap, batteries, lanyard and carrying case.

Accuracy: +/- 2%
EC to TDS Conversion Factor: Non-linear conversions for KCl, 442TM or NaCl solutions, set by the user.
Calibration: Digital calibration by push button.
