Teledyne 100AH 10.1.4 M100AH Internal Variables

Teledyne API Model 100AH SO2 Analyzer Instruction Manual, 02417, Rev. D

10.1.3.5 DAC Calibration

The Digital to Analog Converters (DAC) are calibrated when the instrument is set up at the

factory. Re-calibration is usually not necessary, but is provided here in case the V/F board needs

to be replaced and re-calibrated. The procedure for using the DAC Calibration routines are in the

Troubleshooting Section 10.3.2.1.

10.1.3.6 RS-232 Port Test

This test is used to verify the operation of the RS-232 port. When started, it outputs the ASCII

letter X for about 2 seconds. During the test it should be possible to detect the presence of the

signal with a DVM. A detailed procedure is given in the Section 4.3.1.2.

10.1.4 M100AH Internal Variables

The M100AH software contains many adjustable parameters. Many of the parameters are set at

time of manufacture and do not need to be adjusted for the lifetime of the instrument. It is

possible to change these variables either through the RS-232 port or the front panel. Altering the

values of many of the variables, especially those not listed on Table 10-5, will adversely

affect the performance of the instrument. Therefore it is recommended that these variables not

be adjusted unless you have a clear understanding of the effects of the change.

Table 10-5 contains a description of "easy variables" which do not require special password from

the front panel. "Hard variables" require special password and contact factory if you need to

adjust them. "V LIST" of RS-232 will list all the variables except those that should never be

manually edited.

To access the VARS menu press SETUP-MORE-VARS-ENTR. Use the PREV-NEXT button to

select the variable of interest and press EDIT to examine/change the value, then press ENTR to

save the new value. If no change is required, press EXIT.
