BLEED: STOP option. If BLEED: STOP is selected, the compressor will recharge the tank and
operations will recommence.
Once the tank is bled, the power connector to the Bubbler should be removed until maintenance is
completed. Once maintenance is completed and power is re-established, operations will
recommence. However, if power is not disconnected after the tank is bled and no further actions
are taken, operations will resume after 24 hours.
Normal Tank Bleed Procedure:
1) Start Bleed (bleeding will stop once the tank is empty)
2) Disconnect Power connector
3) Conduct maintenance
4) Replace power connector
3.5 CONFIGURING THE BUBBLER USING THE BUBBLER INTERFACE
The Set Stage and Setup menus are used to configure the Bubbler.
IMPORTANT! After configuring, issue a set date and time X-command to the Bubbler (see
section 5.2.3). The Bubbler’s time is used to timestamp the data stored on the SD card.
Transmitted data will be timestamped in accordance with the data logger’s clock.
The following variables can be set using either the Bubbler’s interface or through the data logger.
The Bubbler will retain the last input configuration regardless of which method is used.
• Set stage
• Stage units
• Rate
• Temperature units
• Averaging Duration
3.6 SETTING THE STAGE
When the stage is set using the front panel, the Bubbler will determine and store the offset. Offset
is determined as the difference between the Bubbler’s measured depth and the input stage. The
offset is displayed on the Status Screen
