AutoRange Enabled
C SPAN 2
C COMPUTE SPAN
C EXIT
Z/S valves switched to admit
span gas. Span calibration of
high range in Auto Range
mode.
Zero Calibration with Dynamic
Calibration enabled
C ZERO
C EXIT
Z/S valves switched to admit
zero gas. Instrument is zero
calibrated if DYN CAL is
enabled.
Zero Calibration C ZERO
C EXIT
Z/S valves switched to admit
zero gas. Instrument zero is
just checked, but not changed.
Execute AutoCal Sequence #2 C ASEQ 2 Execute a predefined AutoCal
Sequence. Executes sequence
immediately, ignoring time and
date parameters.
Span Calibration Check C SPAN
C EXIT
Z/S valves switched to admit
span gas. Instrument span is
just checked, but not changed.
Whenever the analyzer starts or finishes an IZS calibration, it issues a status report to the RS-232
interface. If the RS-232 interface is in the normal mode, these reports will be sent. Otherwise,
they will be discarded. Table 5-19 shows the format of the text of the calibration messages. An
example of an actual sequence of calibration status messages is:
C DDD:HH:MM IIII START MULTI-POINT CALIBRATION
C DDD:HH:MM IIII NOX=xxxxx PPB NO=xxxxx PPB NO2=xxxxx PPB
C DDD:HH:MM IIII FINISH MULTI-POINT CALIBRATION
