11.7  Test number

All tests can also be accessed by entering the test number. 
When entering the three-digit test number, the information of the 
last selected sub-method appears. By entering the three-digit test 
number plus the corresponding sub-method number, the informa-
tion for this sub-method can be viewed. Pressing 

Delete

 deletes 

the entry. Confirming with 

 executes the selected method.

After entering the method number, details of the method are 
displayed.

12.  Settings

Press the 

 icon to enter the instrument settings. In addition to 

the settings for measurement and the device settings, the logging

tings. The dialog box is closed by clicking on the display next to 
the box or via 

. The settings are saved. 

12.1  Measurement
12.1.1 NTU-Check

The 

NANOCOLOR

®

 Advance provides a warning of interfering 

turbidity when measuring a test in 16 mm or 24 mm test tubes.
The NTU check is activated by default. Parallel to the measure-
ment, the nephelometric turbidity is determined by measuring at 
860 nm at a 90° angle. The NTU value is reported together with 
the result. If the set warning limit is exceeded, a warning is issued 
and the result is displayed in red. The measured turbidity value is 
stored together with the result.
Clicking the NTU-Check entry opens a window for setting this 
function. Use the slider to activate the NTU-Check. Define a 
warning limit with the help of the numeric keypad. The default 
warning limit of 10 NTU is recommended.
Activating the

 Warning message for turbidity

 option will display an 

additional warning message in the results window if the turbidity 
value exceeds the warning limit.

12.1.2 Reaction time

Clicking the 

Reaction Time

 entry opens a window for setting this 

function. When activated, the reaction time stored for a test is 
automatically counted down before the measurement. After the 
reaction time has elapsed, the test is performed automatically. 
After activating the slider, a 

 appears in the status bar.

If you set the

 Reaction time for each measurement 

slider, the re-

action time within each method is also counted down for each 
additional inserted cell.
