2.3 Instrument Labels

The following labels should be applied to the outside of the enclosure.

2.4 The Display

Figure 1 illustrates all the items that can appear on the display. The 

upper row of the display (1) is used for reporting the chlorine levels and 

to provide user guidance in the customer setting routine. The lower row 

of the display (2) is used to communicate error messages (message 

queue) and provide user guidance. The display has two icons (3) 

that are used to indicate the use of access code and offset mode. In 

addition, mode arrows (4) are used to indicate the current instrument 

operating mode; AUTO (normal operation), CAL (calibration) and 

CONFIG (configuration).

2.5 The Touch Pad

Figure 2 illustrates the touch pad. The touch pad has six buttons: 

PRIME, SERVICE, MODE/EXIT,

 

  , 

 and 

 

The 

MODE/EXIT

 button is used to cycle between the three operational 

modes of the instrument: 

CAL, CONFIG,

 and 

AUTO

 (Measurement) 

mode. The 

  button enters the option or mode that is highlighted or 

chosen. The 

 and 

 buttons are used to change settings.

The 

PRIME

 and 

SERVICE

 buttons are dedicated controls. The 

PRIME

 

will start 75 reagent pump pulses to prime the tubing after a change 

or addition of reagent bottles. The 

SERVICE

 button will drain the 

instrument and hold all operations until either the 

SERVICE

 button is 

pushed again or the power is reset. This button should be used while 

changing the tubing, the measurement cuvette or reagent bottles.
