Method

Calibrating with automatic solution changing

The basic structure of a calibration method with automatic solution exchange on a
Sample Processor looks as follows:



Defining the number of
buffers/standards and type
of solution exchange.


Move to the next
buffer/standard.

The request for changing the buffer/standard must be deactivated in the com-
mand

CAL LOOP pH

or

CAL LOOP Conc

respectively. No request for changing the

buffer/standard is displayed during the method run.

For the automatic move to the next calibration solution on the Sample Processor a

command

MOVE

must be inserted between the loop command

CAL LOOP

and the

measuring command

CAL MEAS

. The positions of the calibration solutions on the

sample rack are defined in the command

MOVE

. There are three possibilities:

for the first calibration solution has to be defined in the

command

. The other calibration solutions must be placed on the di-

rectly following rack positions. The following settings have to be done in the
command
