There are two pressure tests carried
out in BioTector. One is a daily
pressure test and the other, called
pressure check, is carried out every
analysis cycle. This function relates to
the daily pressure test. Pressure/Flow
Test cycle has been switched off. See
Section 8.3.4.5 Pressure/Flow Test
Program for details.
Activate the Pressure/Flow Test
cycle by programming the factory
flow settings in Pressure/Flow
Test Program menu.
System factory configuration settings
are available in the MMC/SD card
shipped with the BioTector.
