GENERATOR ELECTRONIC OPERATION
Electronically the O
3
generator and its subcomponents act as peripheral devices operated
by the CPU via the motherboard. Sensor signals, such as the UV lamp thermistor are
routed to the motherboard, where they are digitized. Digital data is sent by the
motherboard to the calibrator’s CPU and where required stored in either flash memory
or on the CPU’s disk-on-chip. Commands from the CPU are sent to the motherboard
and forwarded to the various devices via the calibrator’s I
2
C bus.
