Photometric Analyzer

Operation 3

Part I 3-23

Teledyne Analytical Instruments

The defeat alarm mode is incorporated into the alarm circuit so
that maintenance can be performed under conditions which
would normally activate the alarms.

The defeat function can also be used to reset a latched alarm.
(See procedures, below.)

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

to access the alarm functions. Follow the instructions in section 3.3.3 to enter
your password. Once you have clearance to proceed, enter the

Alarm

function.

Press the

Alarm

button on the front panel to enter the

Alarm

function.

Use the

ΔΔΔΔΔ∇ keys to choose between % or ppm units. Then press

Enter

to

move to the next screen.

AL1: 1ØØØ ppm HI

Dft:N Fs:N Ltch:N

Five parameters can be changed on this screen:

Value of the alarm setpoint, AL1: ####

Out-of-range direction, HI or LO

Defeated? Dft:Y/N (Yes/No)

Failsafe? Fs:Y/N (Yes/No)

Latching? Ltch:Y/N (Yes/No).

To define the setpoint, use the < > arrow keys to move the
blinking over to AL1: ####. Then use the

Δ∇ arrow keys to

change the number. Holding down the key speeds up the
incrementing or decrementing.

To set the other parameters use the < > arrow keys to move the
blinking over to the desired parameter. Then use the

Δ∇ arrow

keys to change the parameter.

Once the parameters for alarm 1 have been set, press

Alarms

again, and repeat this procedure for alarm 2 (AL2).

To reset a latched alarm, go to Dft– and then press either

Δ two

times or

∇ two times. (Toggle it to Y and then back to N.)

–OR –

Go to Ltch– and then press either

Δ two times or ∇ two times.

(Toggle it to N and back to Y.)
