To perform a test, first optionally edit the Test Reference and press Apply to set the
new value. This is a descriptive label which can be used to identify or group the
test later (along with the test number and test time/date). An example would be a
machine number or customer name. The Test Reference can be up to 15 characters
in length.
When connected the ICM
status should show "Ready’’. The operator can then press
the Start button to begin the test. The progress bar shows how much of the test has
been completed. The test can be abandoned at any time by pressing the Stop button.
If the Start button is pressed during a test, then the current test is abandoned and a
new one started.
When the test has finished, the
Result area will display the contamination level in
the set format and water content and temperature if ’W’ option.
