One or more 'ENTERs' (when they are prompted for) is generally required for the execution
of a single command, whereas on the entry of multiple commands, the subsequent 'Enters'
are automatically performed by the software.
File Name Conventions -
AP
Monitor Voltages Printout
This command prints to the line printer, the monitor screen, or to disc, a number of
diagnostics that are continuously available in the Brewer. The diagnostics include power
supply voltages, test lamp voltages and currents, temperatures, and Brewer moisture
content, if the Brewer includes the "Moisture" option. A full list of AP output values can be
found in Appendix A
AS
Azimuth Tracker to the Sun
The AS command moves the Azimuth Tracker to the azimuth angle where the Ephemeris has
calculated the sun to be for the current location and time. The North Correction from the most
recent Siting (see SI command) is applied.
AU
Automatic Operation
The AU command results in the Brewer executing a series of commands which are imbedded
the AU routine (HP HG DS ZS DS ZS DS ZS B1 UV (or UX)). The sequence continues until
interrupted by an operator, or until the sun reaches ZA = 85° . At ZA = 85° , the system executes
the ED command.
AZ
Azimuth Tracker Zeroing
The AZ command causes the Azimuth Tracker to return to its zero reference (North) position,
and then move the Brewer to the solar azimuth as calculated by the Ephemeris according to
the Location, the Time, and the current North Correction, as determined by the most recent
Siting (see SI command). See also Appendix F.
B0
Turn off Lamps
B0 ensures that the Standard Lamp and Mercury Lamps are both off.
B1
Mercury Lamp ON
B1 turns on the internal Mercury Calibration Lamp, and is useful in a command sequence
(i.e. B1DSHG) where a DS measurement is taken while the Mercury lamp is warming up.
Note that if the HG does not execute for some reason, the lamp may be left on and must be
turned off with the B0 command.
B2
Standard Lamp ON
B2 turns on the internal Standard test Lamp and is useful in a command sequence (i.e.
B2ZSSL) where the ZS measurement is taken while the Standard Lamp is warming up.
Note that if the SL does not execute for some reason, the Lamp may be left on and should be
turned off with the B0 command.
CF
Instrument Constants File Update
CF accesses the Brewer's Instrument Constants File and allows the operator to make
changes.
Note that the constants in this file affect the operation and calibration of the instrument, and
normally are not changed unless the instrument is undergoing recalibration or has undergone
repairs. This command requires operator input, and changes should be made or approved
only by qualified personnel. See also Appendix B.
