Automatic Bump Testing and Calibration

The PC Controller Program will automatically perform a bump test or calibration on a
connected instrument if Auto Bump Test or Auto Calibration is selected in the
Configuration Window and if the bump test or calibration is due. The use of these
features allows the user to launch the PC Controller Program, turn on the
instrument(s) and walk away. No oversight of the bump test or calibration is needed.
For this reason, the calibration cylinder needs to already be in place before an
instrument is connected to the program.

NOTE:

The Standard GAS or All GAS settings in the Configuration Window do
not affect the automatic testing of a GX-2009.
