Connecting Instruments to the
Data Cal 2000

When an instrument is connected to the Data Cal 2000, the software
automatically retrieves the instrument’s parameters such as serial
number, calibration interval setting, and data logging interval time. It can
also automatically download data, bump test, or calibrate an instrument
depending on whether these items are selected in the parameter tab of
the Configuration window. To connect an instrument or instruments to the
Data Cal 2000, perform the following steps:

1. If necessary, verify that the Data Cal 2000 is completely assembled

and connected to your computer as described in “Data Cal 2000
Hardware Setup” on page 13.

2. If necessary, verify that the Data Cal 2000 software has been set

up as described in “Setting Up the Data Cal 2000 Software” on
page 27.

3. With the Data Cal 2000 off, put the instrument(s) to be connected

into an appropriate docking module. Make sure that a GX-2001 is
placed into a DM-2001, a GX-2003 is placed into a DM-2003, and a
GX-2009 is placed into a DM-2009.

For a GX-2001, attach the flow adapter cup to the sensor side of
the instrument before inserting it into the DM-2001.

For the GX-2003, place the instrument into the DM-2003,
connect the plastic fitting on the end of the coiled black tube to
the inlet fitting, and then connect the plastic fitting on the end of
the straight green tube to the exhaust fitting.

For a GX-2009, place the instrument into the DM-2009. No
secondary connections to the GX-2009 are needed.

4. Turn on the Data Cal 2000 with the power switch on the back panel.

5. Launch the Data Cal 2000 software. The main program window will

appear.

6. Turn on all instruments that are in the docking modules.
