Press

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 V dc (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.

The Analyze Function

When the

Analyze

function is active, the 3010TAC is monitoring the

sample gas currently flowing in the Analysis Unit cell block. All undefeated
alarms are ready to activate should their respective setpoints be crossed.

Press the

Analyze

button to put the analyzer in the

Analyze

mode.

Normally, all of the functions automatically switch back to the

Analyze

function when they have completed their assigned operations. Pressing the

Escape

button in many cases also switches the analyzer back to the

Ana-

lyze

function. Alternatively, you can press the

Analyze

button at any time

to return to analyzing your sample.
