how to change all the parameters that are shown on the display. As we proceed through the
explanations, it will become clearer as to how the 6300-M4 actually operates.
Interaction with the 6300-M4 is done through several different screens that are displayed on
the Remote unit. All the screens are shown in Figure 3.1. Of the screens shown in Figure 3.1,
the Self Test screen is used only at startup, all the Function Select screens are used only a few
times during normal operation and also when first setting up the 6300-M4. The Calibrate
screen is used only once a year by the calibration facility. During normal operation, the two
screens that are used the most are the Main Operating screen (Main Screen) and the Leak
Screen. All the different screens, except the calibration screen, are explained in this section.
The Calibration screen is explained in section 6.

MAIN OPERATING SCREEN
Most of the operation of the 6300-M4 is done in the Main Screen. All the pertinent parameters
are displayed on this screen. The screen is also used to change Target values, Units, and
Modes. The following sub-sections explain the various uses of the Main Screen.
3.2.1 DISPLAYED PARAMETERS
There are 11 basic parameters of importance while using the 6300-M4. Each of these
parameters is displayed on the Main Screen. Each parameter is explained below and
highlighted in a sample screen.
