To set or change slope:
§  Press the 4 key from the Program Menu to display the 
Slope screen� The current initial weight percentage is 
shown�
§  Use the numeric keys type in the desired %IW, then 
press the Enter key�
§  Note that there are some advanced options indicated by 
Time and Calc on the soft keys� To change these fea-
tures, see “Window of Time” or “Calculation Endpoint�”
§  When all the parameters for Slope have been changed, 
press the Enter again or the Arrow key to return to the 
Program menu�
Window of Time
  To set or change window of time:
§  Press the Time soft key to display the Window of time 
screen�
§  Use the numeric keys to type in the desired window  
of time, then press the Enter key� The display will 
return to the Slope screen�
Endpoint Calculation 
  There are three additional advanced slope settings 
called Calc 1, Calc 2 and Calc 3, which are algorithms 
that calculate the endpoint prior to achieving the actual 
slope� These will provide more rapid results on some 
samples; however, the success of the Calc mode varies 
from case to case�
  To set or change Calc endpoint:
§  Press the Calc soft key to display the Calc menu�
§  Press a number key to select the desired calculation set-
ting� The display will return to the Slope screen�
§  If developing a method, check the correlation of each 
Calc mode starting with Calc 1 to the actual endpoint 
result�
