1.3.1. Details of Sensitivity Set Values
"Sensitivity" referred to here is the total sensitivity obtained by multiplying the
sensitivity constant (K) of the ULVAC sensor head (M type) for nitrogen by the
relative sensitivity (Srj) for various types of gases, where the sensitivity for nitrogen
is given as 1.

1.7. Selection of DEGAS Function
(1) dGS:1
⇒
MANUAL MODE
A single press on the DEGAS switch turns ON degassing and a second press
turns OFF degassing.
(2) dGS:2
⇒
AUTO MODE
A single press on the DEGAS switch turns ON degassing. It is automatically
turned OFF when an arbitrarily designated time elapses. If it is desired to turn it
OFF before the time elapses, press the DEGAS switch, and degassing will be
turned OFF.
1.7.1. Setting of DEGAS Function
Settable numeric values are 01 to 99 minutes.

2. Nomenclature and Functions of Components
Name (Inscription)
Function
①
POWER
Pressing the top of the POWER switch turns on power
and pressing the bottom turns it off. When the power is
on, the LED in the switch is lit.
②
FIL
Used to turn on/off the filament. The first press on the
key turns on the filament and a second press turns it off.
③
DEG
Used to turn on/off degassing. The first press on the key
turns on degassing and a second press turns it off.
Degassing is automatically turned off after a preset time
when used in the auto OFF mode.
④
F1
Not used
⑤
O PRG
Switch to change over to the setting mode.
Holding down the switch for 2 seconds or more changes
over the measurement mode/setting mode.
⑥
Each press on the switch increments a value by one.
⑦
Shifts a value to the right.
⑧
Used to store a set value in memory.
A set value cannot be changed unless this switch is
pressed because it is not stored in EEPROM.
