Operation 3-13
The steps for adding or editing a recipe are identical. Press either the
Add button or the Edit button and proceed as follows:
1. Press Add or Edit button to display the Recipe Tab.
2. On the Recipe tab, enter a name or edit the name of the recipe. For
a new recipe, a default name will appear, but you can type over it and
name the recipe anything you want.
3. Select the Count Mode: options are Automatic, Manual, and Beep as
described below.
If this mode is selected, the particle counter starts counting
in automatic mode when the start button is pressed
according to the settings on the Recipes Timing Screen.
If this mode is selected, the particle counter starts sampling
immediately when the start button is pressed and stops at
the end of the sample time, which is configured on the
Recipes Timing Screen.
The Beep mode enables the AeroTrak particle counter to
operate in a “Geiger Counter” mode. As particles are
detected, a beep is emitted. The frequency of beeps
configured utilizing the alarm thresholds setting. It works on
a single bin. If you wish to beep on total particulates,
configure the unit in cumulative mode and set an alarm
threshold for the .5 channel. The alarm threshold
determines the beep frequency. The actual number of
particulates measured in the preceding 1 second will be
divided by the threshold and the corresponding number of
beeps emitted. An alarm threshold of 0 will not emit beeps.
To alarm on viable particulates, be sure that all total
particulate alarms are disabled and configure an alarm in
the viable count channels. It is configured in the same
manner described above.
