Explanation
START
Starts a measuring cycle.
If the T-Guard™ Leak Detection Sensor was in STANDBY the
start will be delayed by some seconds.
STOP
Stops a measurement cycle. You will not get a valid leak rate.
START/STOP
Starts and stops a measurement cycle if switched to HIGH or
LOW , respectively.
CAL
Starts a calibration.
A successful calibration changes the calibration factor.
PROOF
Starts checking the calibration with the proof leak rate.
CLEAR
Clears errors and warnings. T-Guard™ Leak Detection
Sensor restarts in case of an error.
READY
Wakes up the T-Guard™ Leak Detection Sensor from
Standby mode.
STANDBY
Puts the T-Guard™ Leak Detection Sensor on Standby
mode. This enlarges the sensor lifetime.
GROSS / FINE
Switches between GROSS and FINE measurement.
Only available in Continuous Mode.
PURGE
Purges the measurement line as long as input is high. The
helium sensor signal will be ignored.
Only available if auto-purge is off.
