Data is transmitted at 2400 baud, with 1 start bit, 1 stop bit, 8 data bits in ASCII Code, and no
parity bit (RS-232 signal levels).
With both the reader and the receiving equipment turned off, plug in both ends of the cable.
Then turn the receiving equipment on. Finally, turn on the strip reader. It is important to have the
receiving equipment ready before starting up the strip reader so that data will not be lost.
1.5.3 Internal Printer
If there is no paper in the printer, install a new roll of paper as follows:
How to install a roll of paper:
Remove the paper cover by pinching its sides together and pulling up. Unroll about 10 inches
(25cm) of paper, and place the roll on the table behind the instrument. A ragged edge or
wrinkled paper will be difficult to load and could cause a paper jam. Feed a clean cut edge of the
paper from the back, into the printer, along the top edge of the metal guide inside the printer
paper well. Feed slightly more than 1 inch (3 cm) of paper in, then press the PAPER key several
times to automatically feed the paper through the printer. You will see the paper feed up through
the paper slot in front. If you have difficulty, cut a new straight edge before trying again. Drop the
roll of paper into the printer paper well in back, spooling up any loose paper. Replace the paper
cover by pinching its sides together and placing it down over the roll of paper. Use of the paper
cover is optional for holding the paper down into the printer paper well.
1.5.4 Check-out Procedure
After installation and each time you start up the instrument, perform the following instrument
checkout procedure. If any portion of the procedure does not check out properly, contact your
dealer to arrange for assistance.
Turn the power switch on. The printer should print the instrument name and “:X,” where X is the
software revision level. Then the time and date will print. If they are not correct, see section
2.4.1, Clock and Calendar, for setting time and date. Look for “Ready” and the correct time in the
display. Press the ABS key. Look into the strip track for light, indicating that the lamp is lit. See
“ABSORBANCE MODE” displayed and printed. The instrument will then display “SELECT
FILTER”. Select 405-630nm. Then see “Set Carrier” in the display. Now load the empty carrier
over the carrier bar and press the BLANK key and the ENTER key. The instrument will read air.
Check that the carrier moves in and back out of the instrument. Check that all 8 or 12 of the
readings are 0.000 ± 0.005A. Poor repeatability of the absorbance readings for air indicates
possible electronic problems.
