Adjusting devices Note: This section describes how to adjust a device using the test set. The test set itself does not have to be adjusted. The sensors and the corresponding gases are set by means of adjustment. To this end, the zero point and the sensitivity are adjusted to the reference values. Ways of carrying out the procedure The device inspection mode (section 6.3.1.3) determines wheth- er the adjustment is started automatically by the test set or must... -
Page 53: Features
Features ● The adjustment must be performed separately for each ap- plication. − Alternative: the test set will automatically carry out all adjust- ments that are technically possible one after the other via the All menu item. ● Following certain subtests, the gas path is automatically purged. If there is a waiting time associated with this, Purge will appear on the display. -
