    For these pre-programmed methods, the instrument gives direct readout test results. The V-2000 also offers the user the option of taking readings in absorbance or % Transmittance at each of the 4 available wavelengths (program numbers 1 - 4). Absorbance readings can then be used to generate a user specific calibration equation.

    Supported Parameters in Chapter 9 of this manual is displayed with the suggested number of significant digits for each particular method. The digits resolution setting on the V-2000 is not method specific, and therefore must be NOTE: reset as needed when moving from one preprogrammed method to another.

    More parameter specific information is provided in the kit instructions supplied with each Vacu-vial or COD test kit. The V-2000 must be zeroed prior to each series of measurements. Additionally, if the ampoule/vial adapter has been removed or comes loose during operation, the V-2000 should be re-zeroed.

    Install the appropriate sample cell adapter into the photometer. Turn the photometer on by pressing the power key. Insert the zeroing vial into the V-2000, cover the zeroing vial with the light shield, and press the zero key. “Wait” is displayed, then the result is displayed as “0.000".
  • Page 13: Logging Data Automatically

    When a test result is being displayed by the instrument, press the log key. The log icon will appear in the display. The V-2000 will display “1 LOGGED”. As new test results are logged, the number preceding LOGGED will append to reflect the number of saved test results.

    When connecting the RS-232 cable to a computer, a serial connector may be required (a 25 pin to 9 pin adapter is included with the V-2000). If your computer or printer does not have a serial port, you will need to purchase a separate adapter that will allow you to connect the V-2000 RS-232 serial cable to the USB port on your printer or computer.
