Memory Screen
The GT-526S memory is composed of a single file which contains the data from sample
events. Every time a sample is completed, the GT-526S stores that data into the
memory. The GT-526S memory is circular, meaning when the memory is full, the unit
will start overwriting the oldest saved samples with new samples. GT-526S provides
the user the ability to view the memory usage as well as clear the memory.
5.6.1. View Available Memory
Memory Screen is used to view available memory or to clear the memory. The Memory
Screen is accessed by selecting MEMORY from the menu. Figure 18 shows the

FREE shows the percent of space available for data storage. When 0% is displayed,
memory is full and the oldest data will be overwritten by new data. SAMPLES shows
the number of samples which can be store in memory before the memory is full. When
0% is displayed, memory is full and the oldest data will be overwritten by new data.
5.6.2. Clearing Memory
To clear memory, press the ENTER key while viewing the Memory Screen. This will
delete all the sample events in memory. A warning screen will be displayed to prevent
accidental erasure.

Count Alarms Screen
Configure count alarm limits for two particle sizes. To disable count alarms, select OFF
in the field next to the COUNT ALARM header. The alarm for a specific particle size can
be disabled by setting the alarm value to zero. The alarm is active when the count is
equal to or greater than the alarm limit. The maximum alarm limit value is 99,999,999.
Figure 19 shows the Count Alarm Screen.
Alarm values do not change with the count units setting (TC, /L, CF, M3). In other
words, a value of 1,000 will alarm at 1,000 counts or 1,000 particles per liter or 1,000
particles per cubic foot depending on the count unit setting.
