Use this function if manually introducing the high calibration standard to the
analyzer.
Note
It is possible to force the calibration solenoid to turn on by going to
Configuration > Stream Setup > Cal Inlet and selecting ON. If you do this, you
can use the Recalibrate High function on systems where the analyzer
pneumatic output selects the calibration stream.
σ
Note
It is important to remember that if the calibration standard is
introduced manually and running as stream one, density compensation must
be turned off if used.
σ
1. Go to Configuration > Calibration Setup > High Cal Value. Set the high
calibration value to match the concentration of the standard used. Exit the
menu.
2. Connect the calibration standard to the unit, and let it flow through the
injection valve.
3. Let the reported concentration reach a new value and stabilize.
4. Go to Configuration > Calibration Setup > Recalibrate High. Press YES to
accept the new high calibration.
At this point, the current average of the detector signal is latched to
correspond to the high calibration value concentration.
If the reported value of the SOLA II does not match a known sample value or
the standard flowing through the instrument, you can adjust the reading. To
do so, go to Configuration > Calibration Setup > Adjust Reading. The current
reading will be displayed in an editing screen so that you can modify the
reading to match the desired reading.
Note
Do not use this function if the difference between the expected reading
and the analyzer’s reported reading is significant. The Adjust Reading function
should only be used for making minor corrections to the calibration. Using
this function improperly can momentarily hide malfunctions in the unit that
need to be corrected.
