Series 4060 Operation
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 45
1. Setting system parameters
Establish a security password, if desired, requiring operator
to log in.
Establish and start an automatic calibration cycle (if equipped
with the optional autocal module).
2. Routine operation.
Calibrate the instrument.
Choose autoranging or select a fixed range of analysis.
Set alarm setpoints and modes of alarm operation.
3. Special functions setup.
Calibrate analog output, select analog output source.
Procedures for accessing and/or changing parameters as well as
analyzer operation are detailed in the sections to follow. In general, the
sequence of menus available on screen follows a logical course for setup
and operation. It is not required, however to follow this sequential path.
The user could, for instance, go directly to set an analysis range and then
program an offset to the current output for matching a range on the
user’s recording device. The only exception to this is when the
instrument is powered up. It will go through a warm-up period, followed
by a diagnostic self-test routine.
Caution: ALARM SUPPRESSION:
When an alarm condition occurs (see ALARMS),
one or both of the messages, 'AL-1', and/or 'AL-
2' will be displayed on the VFD while in the
ANALYSIS SCREEN. At this time, the ENTER
button may be pressed to acknowledge the
alarm(s) in which case the alarms will be
suppressed until the analysis value is next
updated. This can result in a condition where the
screen may be reporting a value that should
cause an alarm, but until the analyzer again
enters SAMPLE MODE, no alarm condition will
reoccur.
