Section 6.15. Installation of the Extraction Finder Sensor involves the following steps (also depicted in our Quick Start Guide): 1. First, mount the Extraction Finder Sensor to the frame of the equipment. An example is shown. Arometrix, Inc. sales@arometrix.com... - Page 9 4. Finally, ensure the system and installation conform to all applicable laws and ordinances. Installation of the Extraction Finder Monitor involves the following steps: 1. Install the Extraction Finder monitor outside of the C1D1-designated area. Use the supplied 10’ power cord to power your monitor.
- Page 10 4. Record on (optional) at the start of the run: Toggle the Record button to On. Ensure the Record indicator is green. 5. Once the Extraction Finder system is safely in operation, prepare extraction as you typically would. Arometrix, Inc.
- Page 11 Identify XF signal spiking you should see a high signal which indicates a high concentration of cannabinoids in your solvent then a drop in the signal indicating low concentration after initial fluid flow. c. Identify XF signal equilibrate during full flow Arometrix, Inc. sales@arometrix.com arometrix.com/resources...
- Page 12 7. Record off (optional) after the run is finished: Toggle the Record button to Off to save XF data. Ensure the Record indicator is red. Remove SD Card to transfer files. Pro-tip: Once done, upload your logged data file(s) into our DAB (Data Analysis Breakdown) App. Arometrix, Inc. sales@arometrix.com arometrix.com/resources...

Page 13: Section 6: Understanding The Interface
The location of where the line shoots up (or fluoresces) indicates the molecule(s) passing through; different molecules have different wavelength regions ● Y-axis = Intensity (counts): The height of this line, in general, indicates how much of that substance is present at that moment relative to earlier. Arometrix, Inc. sales@arometrix.com arometrix.com/resources... - Page 14 Displays and tracks the interpreted values from your measurement. This plot reduces the raw data and shows you the “highlights” of the run. This view is especially useful for seeing how molecular levels changed over time. Arometrix recommends that Extraction Finder users prioritize this view. Understanding the Graph (X-Y Axis) ●...
- Page 15 These correspond with the Region 1, Region 2, and Region 3 that are shown on the plots. When you press one of these, you will see a Wavelength range. These will come preset with manufacturer’s defaults; however, you can edit the From and To how you see fit. See below. Arometrix, Inc. sales@arometrix.com arometrix.com/resources...
- Page 16 Set Scans to Average This sets how many optical readings the sensor takes before plotting and displaying a result. More readings that are averaged imply less noise, but less information. Arometrix recommends that you select 5. Clock Settings This should be set during initial acquisition. Set the Date Settings and the Time Settings. Then, Submit.
