4. Press the
MEASURE
key and check the unit’s battery condition.
The
MEASURE
key toggles between a small font and a
large font screen. Select the small font screen.
The battery icon is displayed in the middle of the bottom
line of the display. Its condition is marked by the shaded
fraction of the icon. If the unit is powered by the battery
charger a small “plug” icon will replace the battery icon.
NOTE:
When connecting the battery charger to the
analyzer make sure that the “plug” icon appears on the
MEASURE
screen. This ensures a proper power
connection and charging of the batteries.
5. After making sure that the analyzer is drawing clean air at room temperature,
press the
CALIB
key. The cursor (reverse color) will point to the line:
Zero All Sensors
Press the
OK
key to execute an autozero cycle of all the sensors.
6. At the end of the autozero period, all sensors should indicate zero reading with
the exception of the oxygen sensor, which should read 20.9% (the concentration
of ambient dry air), and the stack temperature, which should correspond
approximately to the room temperature.
7. Insert the analyzer’s probe into the stack or engine exhaust. Use the
MEASURE
key to read the stack parameters.
8. To obtain a printout of the data displayed, press the
key. The cursor
(reverse
color) will point to:
Print Test Record
Press the
OK
key to execute a printout on the E8500 Plus’s remote printer.
9. Measured data can be stored in the analyzer’s internal memory. Please refer to
Chapter 8 for more details about data storage.
10. When you are finished with your measurements, withdraw the probe from the
stack, allow the analyzer to draw clean ambient air for several minutes and for
the probe to cool down, before packing the analyzer in its carrying case.
