Standby and Shutdown
This section describes procedures to place the 800 system in standby and to shut
down the system.
Standby is an inactive state that disables the automatic calibration functions to
reduce reagent consumption. During Standby, the system continues to perform
purge sequences to maintain the integrity of the sensors, and it performs the Auto
Clean sequence.
Shutdown discontinues all operations in an orderly fashion. Always perform a
shutdown procedure before you disconnect the power cord to perform maintenance
or troubleshooting procedures.
Placing the System in Standby
Place the system in standby when sample analysis is not required for a prolonged
period of time. Using standby reduces reagent consumption by turning off
automatic calibrations. While in standby, the system performs the scheduled auto
clean and purges the sensors on a regular basis.
