11.1 Accessories
This section explains the optional products available for purchase, which will enhance the
usability of the Galaxy Gas Analyzer, and enable further analysis of data and reading information.
11.1.1 Analyzer Data Manager
The Galaxy Gas Analyzer’s optional Analyzer Data Manager firmware enables the user to
maximize the potential of the incubator analyzer. Instrument readings and event log data may be
downloaded to a PC for further analysis and exported to other applications such as Microsoft
®
Excel ® . It enables direct communication with the Galaxy Gas Analyzer, features a simple
download capability, and is fully compatible with the latest Microsoft operating systems.
11.1.2 Event Log
The Galaxy Gas Analyzers incorporate the ability to log significant events via the Event Log
feature. This can be used as an aid to monitoring the use of the instrument. It can also be used
as a diagnostic tool if a problem should occur with the instrument.
The event log can only be viewed via the optional Analyzer Data Manager. It cannot be viewed on
the analyzer screen. Applicable events are stored in the event log automatically; no user
intervention is required.
The event log can hold approximately 270 events. If the log becomes full, it begins to overwrite
the older events. This can be identified by the index field which starts from event number 1. The
log is cleared when the instrument is reset. For more information on this feature, (see Optional
event log on p. 50).
11.1.3 Temperature probes
The Galaxy Gas Analyzer has the ability to read and display two temperature readings via
optional temperature probes. When a temperature probe is fitted to one of the two temperature
ports on the top of the instrument, the display will automatically show the current reading and a
temperature probe icon will be shown.
The display can also be changed to show a T

– T

calculation by pressing the appropriate key.
Pressing the scroll up or scroll down key in certain screens can allow you to toggle between the
gas reading and the temperature reading.
The operator can also choose to display the temperature reading in either Centigrade or
Fahrenheit (see Settings on p. 20).
11.1.4 Humidity probe
The instrument has the optional ability to use a humidity probe (specified at the time of
purchase). This allows the instrument to read and display humidity readings from the optional
probe.
When a humidity probe is fitted, the display will change automatically to show the current reading
and a humidity probe icon will be shown. The Scroll keys on the instrument panel are used to
switch between the reading screens.
The humidity kit contains the humidity lead and the humidity sensor. If you have purchased and
received the optional humidity sensor, connect by plugging the humidity sensor onto its mating
connector on the transmitter or connection cable. Make sure that the catches are aligned
correctly, then finger-tighten the knurled nut.
