Programmable Read Only Memory) and the integrity of the data

stored in the Monitor’s Working Memory (RAM).

Hardware test

This test checks that the electrical, mechanical and electronic

parts of the Monitor are functioning properly.

The following parts of the Monitor are checked: the pump; the

valves in the pneumatic system; the infra-red light source; the

power supply; the filter carousel; the motor which drives the

chopper wheel; the external vibration level (to make sure that it

does not contribute to the signal measured in the analysis cell);

the analogue circuitry and the microphones (to check that they

are functioning properly).

If you do not wish the Monitor to perform the hardware test

during a partial reset, you can disable it (see

section 5.4.3

). This

also disables the regular self-tests.

If any part of the Monitor is found to be functioning incorrectly a

message will appear in the display to inform the user of the problem.

For example:

The user must acknowledge receipt of such a message by pressing

INFO. Operating errors and warning messages are listed in table-

form in

Chapter 15

at the end of this manual.

If a fault is found in any of the blocks of data stored in the Working

Memory, the Monitor will automatically set the parameters in the

relevant compartment(s) to their default values, and the Monitor will

send the following message on its display screen:

WARNING: MEMORY SET TO DEFAULT

ERROR DETECTED IN XXXXX MEMORY

Where XXXXX denotes the part of the memory that has been

affected. When such a message is received users must check the

contents of the relevant memory to find out which data has been

affected before continuing to operate the Monitor.

OPERATING ERROR:

PUMP TEST FAILED
