6.12 Running the test setup

Running the test setup takes all of the test parameters you have entered for the sample undergoing
measurement and initates the test. Once all of the parameters have been entered, the main display
automatically indicates the test parameters and the test is ready to run.

Follow the instructions on the lower left side of the screen.

Place the empty sample pan in the pan handler (this is possible
without tilting the sample pan if you insert this in the pan handler from
the side directly below the round flange). Place the pan handler in the
sample chamber. Ensure that the tongue of the pan handler fits exactly
in the slot of the draft shield element. The sample pan must lie flat in
the pan handler.

Note: It is advisable for you to work with the pan handler at all times.
The pan handler is ergonomic, safe and provides protection against
possible burns due to a hot sample pan.
