3-8 Operation of the Ecotec E3000
kina22e chapter 3.fm technical handbook(1206)
3.4.2 I•Guide Operating Mode
The I•Guide operating mode has been introduced to support the operator in applying
proper sniffer leak detection technique.
The I•Guide operator guiding mode allows to store pre-programmed parameters for
different units under test. The number of locations that need to be tested per
specimen, the time each location needs to be tested for as well as the time required
to move to the next location may be programmed. In addition, a maximum allowable
global leak rate for the total unit under test is stored. In the I•Guide mode up to 10
pre-programmed testing procedures can be stored.
Notice: If the number of locations to be tested is set to 0, the Ecotec E3000 will
operate in a continuous mode without checking for a global leak rate but
still issue the timer signal for proper testing.
3.4.2.1 Starting the I•Guide Mode
To start the I•Guide Mode go to the main menu and choose SETUP I•GUIDE. In the
opening menu go to the top line item and change the setting to
ON with the left hand
side push button and press
OK. The Ecotec E3000 will automatically choose the first
enabled I•Guide program in the list. A message screen will pop-up notifying the
operator that I•Guide has been activated and therefore only one or two gases will be
measured from now on (the gas selected in the I•Guide program you choose).
For how to set-up and I•Guide program please refer to Section 4.5.4.
To switch back to the Standard Operation Mode select “I•G
UIDE OFF” and press “OK”.
