1.0 Introduction

1.2.5 Local Meter Readout

For analyzer configurations having a remotely located control module,

the local meter is used to read the reference and measuring peak heights, or
the voltage output from the buffer amplifier before voltage-to-current conver-
sion.

When the control module is integral with the analysis section, i. e., the

explosion-proof configuration, the meter is connected to the output of the
control module in order to display the concentration of the component of
interest as well as the previously mentioned information.

1.2.6 Control Module

In the explosion-proof version, the calibration meter is used as an all

purpose readout; in this case, there is some modification in the switching at
both the control module and power module.

In addition to control switching, adjustment (zero and span), and read-

out components, the control module has provisions for five circuit cards: an
automatic zero/extended voltage amplifier, E-to-I converter, I-to-E converter,
power supply, and alarm comparator. The alarm comparator circuit card
incorporates two circuits with jumpers that permit setting the alarm(s) for
high, low, high/low, high/high, and low/low settings. Setpoint adjustments
are performed with potentiometers on the module front panel.
