correct signal strength with it. The monitoring ensures that the Ecotec E3000 does not
become insensitive and that leaks are not detected without the user noticing. If the
sensitivity is reduced, the “Sensitivity too low” error message is issued. Recalibration
can restore sensitivity in this case, see "Calibrate [}43]." The error message is
repeated every 15seconds until calibration is started.

We urgently recommend leaving the monitoring switched on at all times. It should be
deactivated only for measurements in an argon-free environment because monitoring
requires the argon signal.
Automatic cathode If the function is activated, the device switches over to the other cathode whenever the
E3000 is switched on. This results in equal usage of both cathodes.
Calibration In the “Calibration” window, you can activate or deactivate external calibration. This
prevents a previously executed external calibration from being overwritten
accidentally. For more information on calibration, see "Calibrate [}43]."
Changing the menu
PIN
You can protect access to the settings with a PIN.
To prevent entry errors, you have to enter the PIN twice. After confirmation with “OK,”
the main menu is displayed and the PIN is effective immediately.
To cancel protection again, enter “0000” as the new PIN (factory setting).
