Numeric Value, Duration, Time and Date Entry

In cases where the system requires the user to enter a number, duration, time, or date, the
following mechanism is used. The number of digits to be entered depends on the type of value
being entered. In some cases, units may be specified (e.g., ppm or hh:mm); in others there may
be no units. Upon entering a value entry screen, see Figure 18, a bar icon below the left most
digit highlights it as the active digit. The up (middle soft key) and down (left soft key) arrows are
used to increase/decrease the digit. The bar icon is moved to the next digit to the right using the
right soft key

. The ‘done’ soft key (probe trigger key or soft keys 2 and 3 simultaneously) is

pressed once the user has finished entering the value and the new value is stored into memory.

No cancel option is available to the user. If a user decides against editing, then simply pressing
the done key (probe trigger) will exit with no changes to the current value.

Instrument Status

The instrument status is shown on the left of the first line, lower left of the last line, or with
various message screens that will display the status of the MicroFID II. Each status has a
priority assigned to it. If more than one status is in effect, then the status with the highest priority
is displayed until the condition is corrected or until the option is turned off. Table 5 is a list of the
possible system alerts.
