Operation and Control Components
Operator Controls
The operator interfaces with various control devices such as the keyboard, monitor and
push-button controls during a routine run. Basic operating functions are controlled and
reviewed from the monitor. Calibration functions are also controlled from the monitor.
Information is selected and entered into the system through touch screen monitors,
from a mouse, and/or at a keyboard.
Push-button controls (refer to Figure 2.4) are used to start the process, to prioritize a
sample run, or to stop the process under certain conditions as described in Table 2.9
below.
