The sampler will not accept a number that exceeds the allowable
range of values placed in parentheses on the display. In the next
illustration, you cannot enter a value less than 10 ml or greater
than 990 ml as a sample volume. If an entered number exceeds
the range, the sampler will emit a series of beeps and the original
number will reappear. You must enter an acceptable value to
advance to the next step.
Editing Numbers – You can use the left arrow and
keys to edit numeric entries if they are used after you

recently typed number.
Some numeric input displays prompt you to enter more than one

entries: hours, minutes, day, month, and year. You can use the
left and right arrow keys to move back and forth between each of
the five entries. Changed individual entries as discussed above.

The examples throughout Section 3 demonstrate the steps used
to check the configure option settings and to program the
sampler for several different sampling routines. The pro-
gramming examples in this manual present each display in the
order in which they appear on the sampler. They are designed to
provide you with step-by-step procedures and are provided as
models for you to use later when programming the sampler for
your "real" applications. Each programming example concludes
