VS Series Component Leak Detector
Indicates that the leak detector is in Test mode.
When in Test mode the leak detector is ready for leak testing.
Reject followed by a flashing red number indicates that a reject setpoint has
been activated.
Indicates that the optional internal calibrated leak standard valve is open and
that the leak detector is reading the Standard Calibrated leak value.
Table 2-6 Leak Detector Condition States
Indicates that both filament 1 and filament 2 of the ion source burnt out
Indicates that the leak detector is preparing for a Full Internal Calibration
sequence.
Indicates that filament 1 of the ion source has no emission due to the Filament
1 is not lit or no ion source voltages. Filament 2 automatically lights if it is still
good and the voltages are OK, and a flashing C appears in the leak
rate exponent, indicating that a calibration sequence is required.
Indicates that filament 2 of the ion source has no emission due to the Filament
2 is not lit or no ion source voltages Filament 1 automatically lights if it is still
good and the voltages are OK, and a flashing C appears in the leak
rate exponent, indicating that a calibration sequence is required.
Indicates that both filaments, No. 1 and No.2, of the Ion Source not lit or burnt
out and/or no ion source voltages
Indicates that the leak detector is lightning the filament
Indicates that the leak detector requires calibration.
Indicates that the gain value required to calibrate the leak detector during the
Calibration/Tuning sequences is greater than the maximum allowable value:
Internal Calibration: Gain > 9.0
External Calibration: Gain > 150
This is generally the result of system sensitivity being too low.
Indicates that the gain value required to calibrate the leak detector during the
Calibration sequence is less than the minimum allowable value (Gain < 0.1).
This is generally the result of a system leak.
Indicates a tuning failure due to the leak detector is not detecting an ion peak
during the tuning sequence due to a weak He source or signal.
