When a head correction is being applied, it is indicated by <h> in the fourth character from

the right in the top line of the MAIN RUN screen (see Section 3.1.1). When the head correction is

zero, the <h> is not shown.

The default head height unit is inches and the fluid species is Nitrogen (N

2

).To change units

of head height between inches and centimeters and to change the test fluid species, use

[SPECIAL], <3head> (see Section 3.5.3).

3.3.8

[SDS]

 PURPOSE

The SDS function is not used in RPM4 A70M/A20M-AF.

3.3.9

[A

UTO

Z]

 PURPOSE

To run the AutoZ function that rezeros the active Q-RPT between full calibrations.

See Section 3.5.1,  Principle for a full explanation of the AutoZ function.

 PRINCIPLE

Run AutoZ is the function by which the current Q-RPT reading is compared to a reference,
P

std,0

, at atmospheric pressure to determine a new value of P

offset

. The value of P

offset

is then

used by AutoZ to automatically correct the Q-RPT for possible changes in zero over time
(see Section 3.5.1,

 PRINCIPLE).

3.3.9.1

[AUTOZ] IN GAUGE MODE

 PURPOSE

To “rezero” the active Q-RPT in gauge measurement mode.

See Section 3.51,  Principle for a full explanation of the AutoZ function.

 OPERATION

For the AutoZ function key to run AutoZ, AutoZ must be turned ON for the

active range and measurement mode. AutoZ ON is indicated by <z> to the left of the

Q-RPT designator on the first line of the main run screen. AutoZ ON and OFF is set

using [SPECIAL], <1AutoZ> (see Section 3.51). If AutoZ is OFF for the active Q-RPT,
and measurement mode, <AutoZ is off> is displayed when [AutoZ] is pressed.

To run AutoZ in gauge measurement mode, use [MODE] to set gauge as the
measurement mode (see Section 3.3.3) and press [AutoZ] from the main run
screen. <Running gauge AutoZ> is displayed briefly before returning to the
main run screen.
