4.7.2 Fixed Range Analysis

The autoranging mode of the instrument can be overridden, forcing

the analyzer DC outputs to stay in a single predetermined range.

To switch from autoranging to fixed range analysis, enter the range

function by pressing the Range button on the front panel.

Use the ◄► arrow keys to move the blinking over

AUTO

.

Use the ▲▼ arrow keys to switch from

AUTO

to

FX/LO

,

FX/MED

, or

FX/HI

to set the instrument on the desired fixed range (low, medium, or

high).

L—1 M—10
H—100 Mode—FX/LO

—or—

L—1 M—10
H—100 Mode—FX/MED

—or—

L—1 M—10
H—100 Mode—FX/HI

Press Escape to re-enter the Analyze mode using the fixed range.

Note: When performing analysis on a fixed range, if the oxygen

concentration rises above the upper limit (or default value)
as established by the operator for that particular range, the
output saturates at 1 VDC(or 20 mA). However, the digital
readout and the RS-232 output continue to read the true
value of the oxygen concentration regardless of the analog
output range.

4.8 The Analyze Function

Normally, all of the functions automatically switch back to the

Analyze

function (Analyze mode) when they have completed their

assigned operations. Pressing the Escape button in many cases also
switches the analyzer back to the Analyze function. Alternatively, you
can press the Analyze button at any time to return to analyzing your
sample.
