  Backlight 
The backlight brightness is fixed to maximum and cannot be adjusted. 
Hold the key combinations until the desired contrast appears on the display.  
Note 
Pressing  the  Up  or  Down  arrow  key  without 
simultaneously pressing the <Select> key when the 
main  screen  is  displayed  causes  the  screen  query, 
START  MANUAL  CALIBRATION?  If  this  happens 
while adjusting the display, press the <Exit> key. 
Note 
The  display  is  sensitive  to  the  ambient  air 
temperature  and  analyzer  temperature.  The 
appearance of the display will vary with changes in 
these conditions. 
2.2.2 Warmup 
When  the  instrument  is  initially  powered  up,  several  components  in  the 
instrument are automatically configured by the microprocessor and an automatic 
zero  is  run.  This  process  takes  about  30 minutes.  During  the  startup  period, 
several  messages  are  displayed  on  the  initial  screen.  These  indicate  the 
progression toward normal operation. 
Initial Screen Message  Instrument Activity 
REFERENCE TEST 
Test Reference pot adjusted to check functionality of 
preprocessor reference circuit. 
ZERO TEST 
Test Measure pot adjusted to check functionality of 
preprocessor measure circuit.  
REFERENCE ADJUST 
Reference pot adjusted to achieve reference voltage of 4.0 
±0.1 volts. 
AUTO ZERO ADJUST / 
ELECTRONIC ZERO ADJUST 
Coarse and fine zero of measurement channel with zero air 
flowing. 
BACKGROUND FILL 
Cell filling with zero air. 
BACKGROUND MEASURE 
Zero reading from measurement cell. Final determination of 
system zero. 
SAMPLE FILL 
Cell filling with sample air. 
SAMPLE MEASURE 
Instrument operational (must be calibrated if this is the first 
power-up sequence). 
Approximately one hour later, the background portion of this cycle is repeated. 
This  time  the  cycle  takes  only  5 minutes.  A  third  cycle  is  performed
