6. Click
OK
to exit the Configuration dialog box or select
Add Analyzer
to add another
analyzer to the configuration. Remember that the analyzer must be connected to the
communications port and switched on; otherwise, it will not be recognized by the Pyris
software.
Once the Pyris software has been configured for the DSC 4000, the DSC 4000 Application can
be started from Pyris Manager.
Starting the Pyris Manager
1. Select
Pyris Manager
from the Pyris Software group in Programs on the Start menu.
The Pyris Manager is displayed on the screen.
2. Select
DSC 4000
from the Pyris Manager. The DSC 4000 control panel is displayed.
3. Now that the system is switched on, the DSC 4000 should be conditioned before using
for the first time (and when it has been switched off for long periods of time).
This is to remove any water vapor that has been adsorbed to the furnace wall during
transport and/or storage. To do this, enter 150 °C in the temperature field beneath the
Go To Temp button on the control panel and click on the button.
Alternatively, you can set up a method to heat to 150 °C at a heating rate of 5 °C/min.
When the analyzer has cooled to ambient temperature, it is ready for normal use.
The configuration for the DSC 4000 is complete. The analyzer is ready to be calibrated.
