filter is calibrated. For example, Filter Bank No.”1” for storage of the

calibration factors for Sulphur hexafluoride.

After calibration of the filter UA 0988 the Monitor is able to

accurately monitor the gas mentioned. By selecting the correct

FILTER BANK NO. in the set-up of the Monitor before a monitoring

task is started, the user determines which calibration factors will be

used during the task. For example, when Filter Bank No.”1” is

entered in the active set-up for filter UA 0988 in position ”A”, the

Monitor reads the calibration factors from file “A1” into its Working

Memory .

Block 2 – Optical Filter Set-up Parameters:

This block contains 3 of the 6 parameters, which describe the optical

filter installed in each position of the filter carousel:

UA number of the filter;

Filter bank number;

S.I.T. information;

If any of the above-listed parameters are changed in the active set-

up they are also automatically changed in the Source Memory.

Block 3 – Other Set-Up Parameters:

This block of data contains all set-up parameters except the optical

filter parameters. Before leaving the factory the parameters in this

block are given factory-set values. These are the values obtained for

a parameter when the Default button is pressed.

Working Memory (RAM)

The Working Memory is a “volatile” memory, that is, data will be

lost from it if electric power is removed from the Monitor. When the

Monitor is not connected to a mains power supply a lithium battery in

the Monitor provides a back-up power supply to protect the data in

this memory. When this battery is no longer providing enough power

a warning BACK-UP BATTERY TOO LOW will appear on the

Monitor’s display to indicate that the battery needs to be replaced by

a new one.

There are four different blocks of data in the Working Memory (see

Fig. 9.1

):

Block 1 – contains only calibration factors and 3 optical-filter

parameters from the active “Filter Bank”.
