Menu Operating Instructions
The settings and controls are organized into ten
main sections or pages which comprise the Main
Menu. This appendix describes all pages of the
menu-based operating system of the 6200 Calorim-
eter.
Note: Keys which make global changes to
the setup of the calorimeter contain a YES or
NO response to make certain that the user
wishes to proceed. This two step entry is
intended to prevent inadvertent global pro-
gram changes.
Calorimeter Operation Menu
The calorimeter will normally be operated from
the Calorimeter Operating Page, although tests can
always be started from any menu page.
Operating Mode: Sets the operating mode by tog-
gling between standardization and determination.
Bomb/EE: Used to identify the bomb presently
installed in the calorimeter and its EE value.
Heater and Pump: The heater and pump must only
be turned on after the calorimeter water tank is filled
with water.
Note: The heater and pump must be turned
ON to bring jacket to the correct starting tem-
perature before testing can commence.
Start Preweigh: This key is used to start the sample
preweigh process. The user is presented with or
prompted for a sample ID. Next, the user is asked to
key in the associated sample mass or alternatively
the mass is retrieved from a connected balance.

system used to fill the bomb. Pressing this same key
while the bomb is filling will abort the process.
