Readjust the gas pressure into the analyzer until the flowrate (as read on

the analyzer’s SCCM flowmeter) settles at 700 cc/minute.

If you are using password protection, you will need to enter your

password to gain access to either of these functions. Follow the instructions
in section 4.4 to enter your password. Once you have gained clearance to
proceed, you can ENTER the

ZERO

or

SPAN

function.

4.8.1 Span Cal

SPAN

is used to span calibrate the analyzer. Span calibration can be

performed using the automatic mode, where an internal algorithm compares
consecutive readings from the sensor to determine when the output matches
the span gas concentration. Span calibration can also be performed in
manual mode, where the operator determines when the span concentration
reading is acceptable and manually exits the function.

4.8.1.1

Auto Mode Spanning

Scroll to

SPAN

, and ENTER the

SPAN

function. The screen that

appears allows you to select whether the span calibration is to be performed
automatically or manually. Use the DOWN/UP

control to toggle between

AUTO

and

MAN

span settling. Stop when

AUTO

appears on the display.

Span: Settling: AUTO
For Next

Use ENTER to move to the next screen.

Span Val: 20.90
Span Mod #

Use DOWN/UP to start changing the oxygen-concentration. Use

ESCAPE/ENTER to blink the digit you are going to modify. Use DOWN/UP
again to change the value of the selected digit. When you have finished
typing in the concentration of the span gas you are using, repeatedly select
ENTER until the rightmost digit is reached, then, the next ENTER will exit the

Span Val

screen. One more ENTER will enter the new span value, bring up

the next screen, and start the span calibration.

#### % Span
Slope=#### ppm/s

The beginning span value is shown in the upper left corner of the

display. As the span reading settles, the screen displays and updates informa-
tion on

Slope

. Spanning automatically ends when the span output corre-

sponds, within tolerance, to the value of the span gas concentration. Then the
instrument automatically returns to the ANALYZE mode.
