THE CRT MONITOR

The monitor is divided into three main sections:

- Instrument state and message sec­tion

- Parameter input/ Result output section

- UVISOFT key section

INSTRUMENT STATE AND MESSAGE SECTION

This section informs you about the actual method in use. The auto zero wavelength is displayed.

Error messages are displayed on the right hand side. The same space is used to provide additional information when entering parameters.

PARAMETER INPUT / RESULT OUTPUT SECTION

The parameters for measurement and calculation are entered in this section. The cursor keys an the keyboard äre used to shift the cursor to the desired spot on the screen. It can be moved within defined locations to enter parameters or to modify displays. The cursor is also used to "scroll" the input/output section of the screen

UVISOFT key section

The software defined "UVISOFT" keys K1-K6 are located an the keyboard. The function of each key is displayed on the monitor

KEYBOARD

NUMERICAL ENTRY KEYS

FUNCTION KEYS

The three Ä-control keys are activated when the instrument shows the display or results page and the wavelength and absorbance or transmission values are displayed in the input /output section. To enter a new wavelength press the A -key and enter the desired wavelength with the numerical keys. Press the enter-key to terminate the input. The up/down keys are used to move the monochromator manually. The monochromator can be moved in single steps by pressing the key repeatedly. For continuous movement keep the key pressed.

The reset-key is always activated, except during a calculation task (e.g. AUTOSCALING, PEAK DETECTION RUN, etc.). Pressing the reset-key causes the instrument to terminate all current activities and to set up the Methods page. All data and para­meters stay in memory.

The auto zero-key is activated when the instrument is in standby and shows the parameter or display page. By pressing the auto zero key the wavelength and the auto zero value is displayed in the upper left hand corner of the screen. The auto zero can be deleted by pressing the key a second time.

When measuring single beam a new auto zero is stored every time the key is pressed.

The hard copy-key is activated when the optional Printer/Plotter P800 is connected. The hard copy function is used to obtain curves, result listings or parameter listings from the screen onto paper.

CORSOR KEYS

The cursor keys are used to move the cursor within defined locations in the input/output section of the screen. The cursor is also used to scroll the parameter page.

UVISOFT KEYS

The UVISOFT keys are used to control the instrument. The related func­tion to each key (K1–K6) on the keyboard is displayed in the UVISOFT key section of the screen. A softkey is only activated when the function is displayed in the.corresponding field on the screen. UVISOFT keys-may be not activated when errors appear.

PREPARATION OF UVIKON 860

-            Switch power off and unplug the mains cord.

-            Open the snap cover (1) on the rearside and open_..thesample__com partment cover.

-            Remove cell holder or other accessories from the sample compartment.

-            Remove the white front panel (2) by pulling up

-            Remove black plug (3), on the rear cover of the sample compartment.

INSTALLATION OF THE PELTIER MICRO FLOW CELL

-            Insert the Peltier Micro Flow Cell into the sample compartment and tighten it with the screw (8).

-            The Peltier Micro Flow Cell has been factory installed for double beam Operation.

-            Connect the in and outlet tubing (10, 11).

-            Insert the new, white front cover (with vent slots) on the sample compartment from the top.

-            Close the sample compartment cover.

-            Shift the grommet (6) of the Jong cable into the slot on the snap cover (1).

-            Carefully close the snap cover.

Attention:          Do not squeeze in any cables !

ADJUSTMENT OF THE PELTIER MICRO FLOW CELL

-            The Peltier Micro Flow Cell has been factory adjusted.

-            If an adjustment is necessary:

. Switch an the power to the Instrument (λ = 540nm) loosen screws (9)

-            Plug the adjustment guide (12) into the light channel and tighten the screws (9).

-            Remove the guide.
