BLZZRD Portable Refrigerated Sampler
Section 5 Extended Programming
5-17
Switch times occur regardless of the state of the sampler. Be
aware that the sampler may leave empty bottles if it becomes dis-
abled. Pause and resumes are an exception; the sampler will not
switch bottles during a pause if the current bottle is empty.
If the program settings instruct the sampler to take a sample at
the start time, the sampler also draws a sample at the switch
time. When this occurs, the pacing will also be reset at the switch
time.
Time switching is normally used with flow-paced programs that
do not take a sample at start. These programs will place a
sample in the current bottle if it is empty at the switch time, and
then move to the next bottle/set. Pacing intervals are reset at
every switch time.
When you use the time switching feature, the volume in each
bottle or bottle set may vary. Sample volumes that would exceed
the bottle capacity are not taken and a “PROBABLE OVERFILL”
message is logged.
5.9.7 Continuous Sampling
Sample programs can be run indefinitely by selecting “YES” at
the “RUN CONTINUOUSLY?” screen. Continuous sampling
resets the distribution when the distribution sequence is com-
plete. That is, when the last bottle of the set is reached, the next
bottle is the first bottle of the set. All pacing modes except
RANDOM are supported.
When running a program continuously, the bottles must be ser-
viced at regular intervals to prevent overfilling the bottles. The
sampler assumes that the next bottle/set is empty and ready to
receive samples. If you are using this feature with two-part pro-
gramming, keep in mind that the parts will most likely reset at
different intervals.
Note
Sampling and Combined Results reports are cleared when the
distribution sequence resets. If reports are needed, they must
be collected before sampler advances to the next bottle set.
Example: Time Switching Distribution
1. Enter the number of bottles that should receive
samples at each sample event.
2. Select TIME.
3. Enter the time between bottle switches.
4. Enter the first bottle switch time.
