Step 13 

Set display scan to “On” or “Off”.

 

 

Step 14 

Proceed to the next parameter screen using the right/forward arrow. 
 

Step 15 

Set auto print to “On” or “Off”. If auto print is set to “On”, select the print 
to hardware from “Internal Printer”, “PC via USB”, 

or 

“USB Mass Storage” 

depending on what hardware is connected to the instrument. 
 

Step 16

 

Set auto save to “On” or “Off”.

 

If auto save is set to “On”, select the save 

to  hardware  from  “USB  CSV”,  “USB”,  or

 

“Internal”  depending  on  what 

hardware is connected to the instrument.

 

 

Step 17 

Proceed to the next parameter screen using the right/forward arrow. 
 

Step 18 

Set 

whether to use as single cell to “On” or “Off”. If set to “Off”, set the 

position prompt per sample to “On” or “Off”, set the number of samples 

to between 2 and 100, and set whether to retake the reference between 

reload to “On” of “Off”.

 

 

Step 19 

Proceed to the measurement screen using the right/forward arrow.

 

 

If  using  a  single  cell  holder,  or  a  cell  changer  set  to  use  as  a  single  cell 
holder, skip steps 20 through 21 and go straight to step 22.  

 
Step 20 

Press the batch measurement icon, then load the cell changer according 
to the cell changer prompt. Then select the confirm icon.
