9.2. Predictive Diagnostics
The analyzer’s test functions can be used to predict failures by looking at trends in their
values. Initially it may be useful to compare the state of these test functions to the values
measured on your instrument at the factory and recorded on the
M200E Final Test and
Validation Data Form
(T-API part number 04490, attached to the manual). Table 9-2 can be
used as a basis for taking action as these values change with time. The internal data
acquisition system (iDAS) is a convenient way to record and track these changes. APICOM
control software can be used to download and review these data even from remote
locations (Section 6.11.5 describes APICOM).
