An incorrect vial type will cause severe damage to probes, needles
or vials. The sample vial location number entered contains the
correct vial type for the sample method to be run. If the “vial type”
is not turned on in Section 6.7, System Options, the Archon will not
identify a vial type automatically.
Using the numeric keypad enter the Method number containing the correct
Sample / Blank parameters, press ENTER. The Sample Type will be updated to
the method’s sample type. If no change is made the method number defaults to
the last one used.
The “Sample Type: Soil” (Water or Blank may be displayed depending on the last
sample type run). The sample type will be determined by the method selected.
The ‘”START RUN” is now bracketed, press ENTER. The MANUAL run will now
begin.
