5. Click
OK
to accept the selections.
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 Pyris Software has been configured for the TGA 4000, the TGA 4000 Application can be
started from the Pyris Manager.
Starting the Pyris Manager
1. Select
Pyris Manager
from the Pyris Software group. The Pyris Manager is displayed on
the screen.
2. Select
TGA 4000
from the Pyris Manager. The TGA 4000 control panel is displayed.
3. Now that the system is switched on, the TGA 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 installation of the TGA 4000 is complete. The analyzer is ready to be calibrated.
