    4. Scanning Probe Connector. Electrical connection for the optional Scanning Probe. NOTE: Connect the Scanning Probe before applying power to the 2H. Failure to do so will result in the lack of operation of Scanning Probe’s display. If this occurs, simply turn off the power to the unit and restart the system.

    The Selector Valve, the Scanning Probe connector, and the two barbed fittings are discussed later. SCANNING PROBE CONNECTIONS If using the 2H with the Scanning Probe, connect the probe’s electrical connector to the 12-pin connector on the front panel of the 2H before applying power to the photometer. Otherwise, the display on the Scanning Probe will not function.

    CAUTION: The 2H should always be positioned so that the Power Switch, located on the rear panel, is readily accessible in the event the unit needs to be powered off quickly. The Power Connector accepts the female end of the Power Cord that comes with the unit. The internal power supply is a universal supply that can operate at either 50 or 60 Hz and with any voltage from 90 to 240 volts, for use in virtually all countries.
  • Page 11: Operational Qualification

    If the Scanning Probe is being used, connect it to the Scanning Probe Connector and the Downstream Port. Verify that the Selector Valve is in the CLEAR position. Apply power to the 2H by setting the Power Switch to the 1 (On) position. The following events will occur: 1. The display will show “8.8.8.8.8.”...

    <DOWNSTREAM>. The % LEAKAGE display indicates the concentration as compared to the upstream value. TESTING WITH THE 2H After the 100% and 0% baselines have been established, the unit is ready for testing operations. During testing operations, readings may be taken from either the Front Panel Display or the Scanning Probe, lessening operator distraction.

    A-4. RS-232 COMMUNICATION The 2H serial output is formatted as a continuous string of ASCII numeric characters. The recommended method for capturing this data is to use the DAS1 or DAS2 data acquisition system from ATI. Shown below are screenshots from the DAS1 on a pocket PC. Contact ATI customer service for details and other information.
