27 • Setting Up the Data Cal 2000 Software
• Orange indicates that the corresponding cylinder will expire in less
than 10 days. When the solenoid is activated, the indicator’s color
will change to green while it is activated and then return to orange
when the solenoid is deactivated.
• Red indicates that the corresponding cylinder’s expiration date has
passed. Although the software will allow use of the cylinder if it is
expired, it is recommended that the expired cylinder be changed as
soon as possible.
WARNING: If an expired cylinder is used for calibration, the
accuracy of the calibration may be adversely
affected.
Setting Up the Data Cal 2000
Software
Once the software is installed, you must set up the software for your
system. Setting up the Data Cal 2000 software consists of the following
tasks:
• setting up the Data Cal 2000 parameter configuration which includes
parameters such as the number of docking modules and their ID.
NOTE: Only the Parameter tab of the Configuration window is
discussed in this section. See “Configuration Window”
on page 77 for a description of the other tabs in the
Configuration window.
• defining which calibration gas cylinders will be required
• defining which solenoids will control which calibration gas cylinder
If docking modules are added or removed or if the calibration cylinders
being used are different from the defined cylinders, the setup will have to
be updated.
