6-5-2 How to Perform Calibration Automatically
All operations are performed on the FC-M1 flow calibrator unit.
(1) Select the flowrate to calibrate using the [UP] and [DOWN] keys on the FC-M1
flow calibrator. Then press the [ENTER] key to confirm the setting.
(2) Press the [ENTER] key again to start calibrating the flowrate (calibration takes
about 2 minutes).
If an MP-W5P pump is being used, a blue indicator will flash to indicate the pump
is running.
If an MP-
Σ
NII series pump is being used, a green indicator will flash to indicate the
pump is running.
(Provided the respective indicators are set up to illuminate)
Note: To cancel the calibration, press the [MODE/ESC] key.
(3) After calibration, a [
] indicator is displayed in the flowrate display area if
automatic calibration was successful. Press the [MODE/ESC] key to return to the
auto-calibration start screen.
On the MP-W5P pump, [
] is displayed again (on the flowrate setting
screen).
On MP-
Σ
NII series pumps, [
] (accumulated flowrate) is displayed (and the
indicator illuminates orange).
(4) The main screen is displayed again when the dedicated communication cable or
USB cable is disconnected.
Calibrate flowrate with the collection tube to be used connected to the pump.
(Confirm flowrate)
(Start calibration)
(Select flowrate value)
(Return to the auto-calibration start screen)
Auto-Calibration Start Screen
All MP-W5P keys are disabled during automatic calibration. If a USB error
occurs during automatic calibration, MP-W5P pumps cannot be stopped using
key operations. In that case, force it to stop by switching the power switch
OFF on the MP-W5P mini pump.
