Switching ON and OFF
The instrument has a power switch located at the rear of the left side of the base. The LED on the
instrument measurement start button is illuminated when the instrument is powered
ON
.
Note: It is recommended to keep the instrument powered ON at all times, unless the instrument is to be moved to
another location, if it will not be used for a long period of time, or if maintenance procedures need to be carried out
inside the instrument.
Instrument auto check
When the instrument is powered
ON
it goes through a number of
startup procedures to check all components are installed and
functioning correctly.
The right side of the screen lists each of the instrument
components that are being checked and a colored indicator to the
left of each component shows the current status:
•
Green
- the component is installed and working correctly
•
Yellow
- the component is in the process of being checked
•
Red
- there is a problem with that particular component
•
Blue
- the component has not yet been checked
If any errors occur on startup that mean that the instrument
cannot function correctly, a warning screen will be displayed
indicating the next course of action.
Note: Once the instrument is switched on you will need to wait until the oxygen sensor residual value reaches the
threshold of 0.1 mbar. This operation can take as much as two hours depending on the instrument and sensor
conditions prior to startup.
Touch screen
The front panel is a TFT VGA (640x480 pixels) color display and touch screen.
Data entry
When a text box (alphanumeric field) is selected for data entry, a
virtual keyboard appears on screen. This is used in a similar way
to a standard PC keyboard. When data entry is complete press
the
Enter
key on the right of the keyboard to confirm input and
exit the virtual keyboard.
Note: Use the Cap key at the bottom left of the keyboard to switch between
upper and lower case characters. This is important for case-sensitive
information such as passwords.
For convenience, selection through a possible large list of items
has been designed with a rolling list. Use the up and down arrows
at the side to navigate through the list or select one item directly.
Press
Ok
to confirm.
