3.1 AUTOREAD PLUS ANALYZER
3.1.1 General Description
The QBC Autoread Plus analyzer is a slim, compact
instrument housed in a sturdy 4-piece enclosure
(Figure 3-1).
Figure 3-2 shows the input/output connectors and
controls located on the back of the instrument. The
analyzer has no voltage- or frequency-dependent
circuitry and operates on direct current voltages
supplied from a separate power pack.
The hinged display of the unit (Figure 3-3) permits
viewing of results, as well as access to the function
keys and tube-loading platform. A QBC tube is
inserted by opening the hinged platform door and
placing the tube into the slotted platform, open
end facing right toward the optics chamber. The
door is then closed to initiate the test measurement.
The ensuing procedure is automatic, requiring no
operator involvement.
