4.6.2 Ignition and/or Flame Guard Circuit Failure
If the flame ignition or guard circuits do not operate as described in
the above two sections, set the instrument fuel regulator to the
recommended pressure. If still fails to ignite, proceed as directed in
Chapter 5: Maintenance & Troubleshooting.
4.7 Analyzer Operation
Although the GC-Pro FID has been programmed for your
application at the factory, it can be further configured at the operator
level. Depending on the specifics of the application, this might include
all or a set of the following procedures:
1. Setting system parameters
 Establish a security password, if desired, requiring operator
to log in.
 Establish and start an automatic calibration cycle (if equipped
with the optional auto calibration module).
2. Routine operation.
 Calibrate the instrument.
 Choose auto ranging or select a fixed range of analysis.
 Set alarm setpoints and modes of alarm operation.
3. Special functions setup.
 Calibrate analog output, select analog output source.
Procedures for accessing and/or changing parameters as well as
analyzer operation are detailed in the sections to follow. All functions
can be accessed from the MENU screen which is accessible via the
center button on the HOME screen.
The default screen is the HOME screen (see Section 4.7.2). This is
the analysis display and shows details regarding the current sample
being analyzed. However, the user can go directly to any function
supported by the analyzer by pressing the MENU button. The only
exception to this is when the instrument is powered up. It will go
through a warm-up period, followed by a diagnostic self-test routine as
explained in Section 4.3.
