Program Installation & Control
Software Installation
The program in the 6100 Calorimeter can be exten-
sively modified to tailor the unit to a wide variety
of operating conditions, reporting units, laboratory
techniques, available accessories and communica-
tion modes.
In addition, the calculations, thermochemical cor-
rections and reporting modes can be modified to
conform to a number of standard test methods and
procedures.
Numerous provisions are included to permit the
use of other reagent concentrations, techniques,
combustion aids and short cuts appropriate for the
user’s work.
Note: Changes to the program are made by
use of the menu structure described in Ap-
pendix A of this manual. Any of these items
can be individually entered at any time to
revise the operating program.
Default Settings
Units are pre programmed with DEFAULT SET-
TINGS. See Pages 16 and 17 for a listing of the
factory default settings.
These default settings remain in effect until changed
by the user. Should the user ever wish to return to
the factory default settings, go to the Program In-
formation and Control Menu, User/Factory Settings
and Reload Factory Default Settings.
Non-volatile memory is provided to retain the date
and time; even if power is interrupted or the unit is
turned off.
Revising Default Settings
The default parameters of the 6100 Calorimeter can
be changed to guarantee that the 6100 Calorimeter,
when cold restarted, will always be in the desired
configuration before beginning a series of tests.
Users who wish to permanently revise their default
settings may do so using the following procedure:
1. Establish the operating parameters to be stored
as the user default settings.
2. Go to the Program Information and Control
Menu, User/Factory Settings, User Setup ID, and
enter the desired User Setup ID.
3. Select Save User Default Settings.
To re-load the user default setting, go to the Pro-
gram Information and Control Page, User/Factory,
Re-load User Default Settings, and YES.
