The Next button on the 8000 Data screen will advance to the next data screen or
Exit can be used to return to the main screen.
5.6 Power Failures
If a power failure occurs during sampling, the sampler will resume sampling based
on the programmed sampling schedule. The sampling schedule and data will not be
lost during a power failure. The actual sampling time will be shorter than
programmed because of the power loss. Data will show a power loss error, and the
volume/time data will show the missing sampling interval during the power outage.
5.7 SOP
The SOP tab provides a Standard Operating Procedure for installing, leak checking,
and scheduling the Model 8000. The SOP software guides the user through the
required procedures and enables inexperienced operators to successfully program
the sampler.
Pressing the SOP tab initializes the program. The Back , Next, and Exit buttons are
used to advance through the procedure or return to the main screen.
Initially, the program brings up a screen that requires the user to check the number
of cartridges to be sampled. Several screens follow which lead the operator through
an automated leak check procedure. Each cartridge must pass leak check or the
program will not continue. After all of the cartridges have been installed and leak
checked, and the total system leak check has been performed successfully, the SOP
leads the user through a scheduling procedure to program the sampling times.
When scheduling has been completed, the Next button returns the program to the
main screen. After sampling has been finished, the operator uses the Data tab to
retrieve the collected data.
