RKI Instruments SDM-2009 PC Controlled Configuration - Manual (Page 34)

29 • Setting Up the PC Controller Program
program will reset the numbers it has assigned to specific docking stations and
reassign them as you turn SDM-2009 docking stations on and connect them to
the program. See “Setting Up the SDM-2009 Display Order” on page 31 for
instructions to use this feature.
8. Select the Calibration options.
In the Calibration section of the Parameter Tab, you can select Manual
Calibration or Auto Calibration.
If Manual Calibration is selected, you have to manually select an instrument or
instruments in the main program window and click Calibration in the lower right
corner of the window in order to perform a calibration.
If Auto Calibration is selected, and an instrument is due for calibration, a
calibration will automatically begin 1 minute after that instrument successfully
connects to the program and its instrument parameters are retrieved by the
program. When you select Auto Calibration, a window pops up indicating that
only sensors tested with GAS 1 and one sensor tested with GAS 2 will be
calibrated in auto calibration.
This screen does not have any meaning for the GX-2009 and is only
applicable to the GX-2012 and Gas Tracer instruments.
If neither box is selected, you will not be able to perform a calibration. The
factory setting is Manual Calibration selected and Auto Calibration deselected.
Select the box for the desired operation.
The Auto Calibration selection also has a Standard GAS and an All GAS
selection. The GX-2009 does not have any non-standard sensors so this
setting does not have any effect on the automatic calibration of a GX-2009.
