Description
Set this multiplier if you want the display to show readings
in units other than AU (absorbance units). You must
determine the factor that converts AU into your desired
units.
When you specify a value other than 1, the display will
read "U" (units) instead of "AU." You can indicate a
concentration factor from 0.500 to 5.000.
This option can save lamp operating hours. If you indicate
"On" for the lamp saver option, the detector automatically
turns off a lamp if it's not required for the currently
selected wavelengths. If you set lamp saver to "Off," both
lamps will remain lit no matter what wavelength is
selected.
The UV lamp is required for wavelengths between 190 and
334 nm, and the visible lamp for wavelengths between 491
and 700 nm. Both lamps are required in the 335 to 490 nm
range.
If you set the lamp saver option to "On" and indicate a
wavelength not in the range of the currently lit lamp, the
detector automatically lights the other lamp and, if
necessary, shuts off the lamp that is not needed.
Press the Change soft key to toggle between the "On" and
"Off" selections for the lamp saver option.
