Model GFC7001E Carbon Dioxide Analyzer

3.5.4.FUNCTIONAL CHECK

After the analyzer’s components have warmed up for at least 60 minutes, verify that the software properly supports any hardware options that were installed.

For information on navigating through the analyzer’s software menus, see the menu trees described in Appendix A.1.

Check to make sure that the analyzer is functioning within allowable operating parameters.

Appendix C includes a list of test functions viewable from the analyzer’s front panel as well as their expected values.

These functions are also useful tools for diagnosing performance problems with your analyzer (see Section 13.1.2).

The enclosed Final Test and Validation Data Sheet (P/N 04307) lists these values before the instrument left the factory.

To view the current values of these parameters press the following key sequence on the analyzer’s front panel. Remember that until the unit has completed its warm-up these parameters may not have stabilized.

If your analyzer has an Ethernet card installed and your network is running a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) software package, the Ethernet option will automatically configure its interface with your LAN.

However, it is a good idea to check these settings to make sure that the DHCP has successfully downloaded the appropriate network settings from your network server (See Section 8.4.2).

If your network is not running DHCP, you will have to configure the analyzer’s interface manually (See Section 8.4.3).
