After connecting, the software presents you with live data and graphs.
Here you can see important diagnostic information like
Cell Temperature
and
Cell

in the bottom-right of the software.
The software offers a variety of other features you may choose to explore. A more
thorough explanation of the software is available at the LI-COR support site.
However, for LI-870 soil applications, you will likely only the use the software for
instrument calibration.
User calibration
If the instrument is not measuring as expected, or if you have disassembled the
optical bench for any reason, you should check the zero and span settings and set
them if necessary. The zero and span are an offset and slope. The zero value ensures
that the instrument shows zero when the gas has a zero concentration. A change in
the zero will affect every measurement. The span setting ensures a correct meas-
urement at a known non-zero concentration. A change in the span affects higher
