Expert Mode – save some set-up time
At the beginning of each new run, the instrument gives the user step-by-step instructions for set-up. These instructions are
provided to make sure that all important steps are done before starting a run. After gaining experience with the instrument by
running it over time, a user can choose to skip all set-up instructions except for “Check pH manually?” and “Filter minutes
OK?” by enabling Expert Mode through Diagnostics.
The primary benefits of skipping most of the set-up instructions are:
Time saved at the beginning of a run.
The ability to change the order of set-up. For example, a user can install the IDF bags first, start the IDF process
running, and then install the SDF bags.
You must be careful while in Expert Mode or you could cause problems!
The IDF/SDF and TDF analyses both start filling the SDF bag with EtOH about an
hour after the IDF process starts. Therefore, if you start the IDF process, and wait
more than an hour to properly install your SDF bags, the instrument will deliver
EtOH to the empty bottom stations, wasting EtOH, and ruining a run.
To enter Expert Mode, follow the steps below.
1. From the Select a Function screen below, press the Diagnostics button.
The following screen will be displayed.
2. Press the Expert Mode button until it says “ON.”
While in Expert Mode you will use the buttons on the Control Panel just below the
Touch Screen Display to operate the clamp bars.
