7.1.2
Factory setting
During zero point adjustment or reference point adjustment, the SO
2
/CO
2-
ratio cannot
be used for compliance monitoring as long as the maintenance signal is active.
The ratio value describes the SO
2
/CO
2
ratio. If the CO
2
value <1 Vol% drops towards
zero, the ratio value would become infinitely large.
To avoid misinterpretation, the MARSIC300 is factory set so that the ratio value auto‐
matically jumps to -999 as soon as the CO
2
value is <1 Vol%.
The SO
2
/CO
2
ratio returns to normal after the adjustment is completed. The mainte‐
nance signal goes out and measuring operation can be continued when the initial state
is reached.
