5.3.4 Range Menu

The instrument operates on any full scale range from 5 to 2000 ppb. The range is the concentration value that equals the maximum voltage output on the rear panel of the instrument.

The front panel will read the concentration anywhere from 0 to 2000 ppb regardless of the range selected.

NOTE

Only one of the following range choices can be active at any one time.

There are 3 range choices:

1.Single Range

2.Auto Range

3.Independent Ranges

5.3.4.1 Single Range

This range option selects a single range for all output channels (NO, NOx, NO2) of the M200AU. To select Single Range press SETUP-RNGE-MODE-SING, then press ENTR. To set the value for the range press SETUP-RNGE-SET, enter the full scale range desired from 5 ppb to 2000 ppb, then press ENTR.
