9. Sample Pump. Use this function to test the Sample Pump. The pump has four operating states: FWR
(forward), REV (Reverse), P-FWR (run under pulse control forward), P-REV (run under pulse control in
reverse). To run the pump in the required mode, press the ENTER key, and select that mode. If P-FWR
or P-REV is selected, enter the number of pulses (½ revolutions), press the ENTER key and the pump will
run. When the pump is running the actual (outside brackets) and programmed pulse time (inside
brackets) is shown. The pump will stop when the required number of pulses is complete, or to manually
stop the pump, press the ENTER key, select OFF, and press the ENTER key again.
10. Injection Valve. Use this function to test the Injection Valve. To change the state of the device, press the
ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER key again. If the device is on, it will be
marked with an “*”.
11. Reactor Motor. Use this function to test the Reactor Motor. To change the state of the device, press the
ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER key again. If the device is on, it will be
marked with an “*”.
12. Sample Out Valve. Use this function to test the Sample Out Valve. To change the state of the device,
press the ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER key again. If the device is on, it
will be marked with an “*”.
13. Exhaust Valve. Use this function to test the Exhaust Valve. To change the state of the device, press the
ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER key again. If the device is on, it will be
marked with an “*”.
14. Cleaning Valve (if configured in the system). Use this function to test the Cleaning Valve. To change
the state of the device, press the ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER key
again. If the device is on, it will be marked with an “*”.
15. Calibration Valve (if configured in the system). Use this function to test the Calibration Valve. To
change the state of the device, press the ENTER key, set the device to ON/OFF, and press the ENTER
key again. If the device is on, it will be marked with an “*”.
16. Stream Valve (if configured in the system). Use this function to test the Stream Valves. To test a
Stream Valve, press the ENTER key and select the number of the valve to be tested. Press the ENTER
key again and the valve will be activated. To turn the valve off, select OFF. These valves can be driven
either from programmable relays or from the Stream Expansion (Auxiliary) PCB. Note that only one
Stream Valve can be switched on at any given time.
17. Manual Valves (if configured in the system). Use this function to test the Manual Valves. To test a
Manual Valve, press the ENTER key and select the number of the valve to be tested. Press the ENTER
key again and the valve will be activated. To turn the valve off, select OFF. Note that only one Manual
Valve can be switched on at any given time.
18. Cooler. This device is normally automatically controlled by the system. To test the Cooler relay, press the
ENTER key and select device state option: ON, OFF, AUTO. If the device is on, it will be marked with an
“*”. The actual cooler temperature in degrees Centigrade (°C) is also shown in this menu.
19. Fan. This device is normally automatically controlled by the system. To test the Fan relay, press the
ENTER key and select device state option: ON, OFF, AUTO. When the device is on, it will be marked with
an “*” and the fan will be forced to run. The actual BioTector temperature in degrees Centigrade (°C) is
also shown in this menu. In AUTO mode, if the temperature of the system is below the default set point
temperature, which is 25°C, BioTector switches the fan off in order to stabilize the temperature using its
own internal heat. If the temperature is above the set point temperature, fan keeps operating
continuously.
20. Temp. Switch The Temperature Switch output is automatically controlled by the system depending on
the system temperature control setting (System Fan Control), which is programmed as 20°C by default.
To test the Temperature Switch, press the ENTER key and select device state option: ON, OFF, AUTO.
When the device is on, it will be marked with an “*”.
