TM

 Spectrometer 

Status Bar 

The Status Bar indicates instrument status. Possible messages include:  
Warming Up, Normal, etc. Refer to 

Chapter 6

 for a complete list of 

messages and actions you should take.  

Menu Options 

There are three menu options.  
 

Menu Option

Cursor 

View individual particle channels. 

Menu 

View user settings and diagnostics. 

Pause/Resume 

Start and stop data display. 

Cursor 

Select 

CURSOR

 to view information about a particular particle size value in 

the graph. To view a specific value, use the control knob to highlight 
CURSOR then press the knob. A bar will appear on the graph and data for 
that size channel will be displayed in the concentration display region (see 
below). Rotate the control knob to view data to the left or right. To stop 
viewing data with the cursor, press the control knob again and turn the 
cursor to select another option from the display.  

Menu 

Select

User Settings 

The user settings (Table 4-1) let you change display settings and turn on/off 
the pumps or chargers and zero the electrometer. The pumps can be 
turned off to reduce noise and save power when the instrument is not being 
used, but still powered on.

Description 

Y-Axis Setting 

Autoscale; 
1E4 to 1E9 

Use this option to select the maximum 
displayed scale for the Y-Axis.  
(1E4 can only be selected in Linear mode) 

Y-Axis Scale

Use this option to turn all flows on or off. 
When Off is selected, the status bar 
displays “Flows and Chargers Turned
