Galaxy® Gas Analyzer — Operating manual
Regardless of the instrument configuration, the following data will be stored for each reading:
• ID code (8 characters)
• Reading Type (0=User, 1=Auto, 2=Peak, 3=Hold)
• Current time/date
• Gas readings (CO
2
, O
2
)
• Sample pressure (for indication only)
• Temperature x 2
• Humidity
6.3 Alternative reading methods
There are three other methods for taking readings, each of which requires slightly different
operating procedures. These alternative reading methods are:
• Logged reading (see Logged reading on p. 31)
• Peak reading (see Peak reading on p. 32)
• Hold reading (see Hold reading on p. 32)
6.3.1 Logged reading
Logged readings need to be configured and initiated via the Utilities menu; during configuration,
you will be asked to supply an ID, reading interval and pump run time, for detailed instructions
(see Logging on p. 23).
These parameters are used to control the reading frequency in logging mode. Once logging
mode is activated, the instrument will automatically record a reading at every interval until you
stop it or until the memory becomes full.
Hint!
• Logging is suspended temporarily whenever you access menu options.
• When the instrument is actively in logging mode, both the Pump and Store keys are
deactivated; only logged readings can be stored.
