MEMORY MANAGEMENT
The 6400 Calorimeter will hold data for 1000 tests in its memory. These tests may be
pre weights, preliminary or final reports for either calibration or determination runs. Once
the memory of the controller is filled, the controller will not start a new analysis until the
user clears some of the memory.
The FILE MANAGEMENT key on the
main menu leads to the file management
sub-menu. The RUN DATA FILE
MANAGER key leads to a listing of the
files. Single files can be deleted by
highlighting the file and pressing the
DELETE key. The controller will then ask
the user to confirm that this file is to be
deleted. A series of files can be deleted
by selecting the first file in the series and
then the last file in the series using the
EXTEND SEL key and then pressing the
DELETE key.
The controller of the 6400 Calorimeter can accept compact flash memory cards. These
cards can be used to:
• Copy test file data for transfer to a computer
• Copy user settings for back up
• Reload user settings to the controller to restore or update the controller’s
operating system.
Compact flash memory cards are inserted into the slot on the back of the control section of
the Calorimeter. Keys are provided on the FILE MANAGEMENT sub-menu to initiate each
of the above three actions.
