Note that the PQ100 takes less than 5 seconds to download.
6. Repeat the above steps for each sample run that is to be collected (multiple samplers)
realizing that the ARuns@ are stacked up using First In, Last Out methodology.
NOTE: You must remember how many runs that you=ve stored in the Datatrans. 20 is
the maximum. If you try to store 21 runs, the Datatrans will not accept the 21
st
run. You
will notice that the yellow light flashes while data is transferring. When memory
becomes full, the red light will not flash indicating that the run was not accepted.
7. It is now safe to turn the unit off.
NOTE: The data will be retained in the Datatrans, even if the 9-Volt battery fails, until it
has been uploaded into a computer and the unit is erased using the data deletion
procedure described below.
To upload to the Computer
1. Plug the Datatrans into the RS232 serial port of the computer.
2. Turn on the power switch and observe the following light sequence: red, yellow
then green. (Green light indicates unit is ready and yellow on indicates Runs are
stored). Red light turns off.
3. Place the connection switch, located on the front panel, in the (Comp) computer
position.
4. Insure the computer is running BGI PQ Software for DOS. (B)egin a new job, then
import data from the sampler should be selected and should be ready to receive data
as if it were attached directly to the sampler.
5. Press any key on the computer keyboard to initiate the transfer.
6. Green light will turn off, Red Light will turn on and ARun Data@ will be stored in the
Datatrans.
7. When the transfer is complete, the software will step to the next screen indicating that
the ARun@ has been transferred.
8. If multiple runs have been stored in the Datatrans, the last run captured is the current
resident run. While a run is resident, the Datatrans retains the characteristics of the
sampler type it was captured from. To step the Datatrans to the next run, you must
first download the current run and then press the pushbutton. Repeat for multiple
runs pushing the Datatrans button after each sample is uploaded. You must ABegin@
a new run for each sample run to be uploaded to the computer. When all runs have
been uploaded, the yellow light will remain off.
9. To use the device again for new runs from the field, you must erase it as described
below:
