User Interface and Startup
4.2 Instrument startup
Important Note: The following assumes that the instrument is already fully operational and has
been used for taking measurements. For first time startup of the instrument refer to Installation
on page 20 to ensure additional procedures have been completed successfully for the instrument
to start up without errors occurring during the auto check procedures.
4.2.1 Instrument auto check
When the instrument is powered ON it goes through a number of startup procedures to check all
components are installed and functioning correctly. A number of instrument parameters are also
displayed down the left side of the screen indicating the current software and board versions
installed:
Note: It is possible (but not recommended) to skip individual checks by pressing the Skip button when the
component has the yellow indicator against it to indicate the component check is in progress.
The right side of the screen lists each of the instrument components that are being checked,
and a colored indicator to the left of each component shows the current status:
• A green indicator means that the component is installed and working correctly
• A red indicator means that there is a problem with that particular component
• A yellow indicator means that the component is in the process of being checked
• A blue indicator means that the component has not yet been checked
If there are errors encountered on startup that mean the instrument cannot function correctly, a
warning screen will be displayed indicating the next course of action.
Important Note: Once the instrument is switched on you will need to wait until the oxygen
sensor residual value reaches the threshold of 0.1 mbar. This operation can take as much as two
hours depending on the instrument and sensor conditions prior to startup.
