4.5.12 The IQ LabLink procedure
The IQ-LabLink procedure enables the secure data exchange between the
sensors of the IQ S
ENSOR N ET online measuring system and a photometer
(such as the spectroFlex series) with the aid of a commercial USB memory
device.
During the matrix adjustment of the sensor, the measurement data of the
IQ S
ENSOR N ET sensor are adjusted to the photometrically determined
reference data.
Previously, the reference data had to be entered manually during the matrix
adjustment. With the aid of the IQ-LabLink procedure, the reference data can
now be directly transferred to the IQ S
ENSOR N ET sensors by means of a
USB memory device, without manual input and with no risk of confusion.
System requirement
for the
IQ-LabLink
procedure
/ IQ S ENSOR N ET :
– Terminal/controller with USB-A interface and software for the IQ-
LabLink procedure (e.g. MIQ/TC 2020 XT)
– Online sensor with software for the IQ-LabLink procedure
(e.g. VARiON
®Plus
700 IQ)
z Photometer:
– Photometer with software for the IQ-LabLink procedure
(e.g. spectroFlex series)
Course of the
IQ-LabLink
procedure
Step 1 on the IQ S ENSOR N ET terminal:
Automatic creation of a job file on the USB memory device with current
sensor values, parameters, designation of the measuring location and
automatic allocation of a job reference number for clear identification
Step 2 on the photometer:
Automatic recognition of the job files, menu-guided measurement of all
required parameters, storage of the determined data in the job file
Step 3 on the IQ S ENSOR N ET terminal:
Automatic recognition of the job files, complete reading of all data required
for the matrix adjustment on keypressing
Note
Carrying out the matrix adjustment of an online sensor with the IQ-LabLink
procedure requires operating steps on both instruments: IQ S
ENSOR N ET
system and spectroFlex photometer.
The detailed description of the cross instrument operating steps for the matrix
adjustment with the IQ-LabLink procedure on the IQ S
ENSOR N ET and the
photometer is given in an additional operating manual. This operating manual
can be downloaded from the Internet under www.wtw.com.
