You can force an IDS to run a bump test on an instrument by using the IDS menu. You may
wish to do this when you want to run a bump test before the next automatic bump test scheduled
for the instrument.
To force a bump test, follow the instructions listed below.
Step Instruction
1.
Make sure that the IDS is on and that the proper gas cylinder is connected to the
Docking Station and that it is correctly configured in the DSSAC. See the
Configuring Gas Cylinders section for more information about configuring gas
cylinders. If the IDS is configured in a cluster, make sure that the gas cylinder is
connected to an IDS in the cluster. See Chapter 8 for more information about IDS
clusters.
