Light Path Calibration: It is used for the correction of light
path. When the instrument has been used for an extended
time, the light source and measuring cell may be subject to
slight changes. Through the light path calibration, the
influence of these slight changes on measurement can be
minimized. When performing the light path calibration, ensure
that DI water has been introduced. After entering the
interface, click "Start" and the interface will show that LED
calibration is in progress. Click "Stop" to stop this process,
but then the system would enter the cleaning and emptying
process. After the LED calibration is finished, click "Confirm"
and the system would pop up current and voltage values of
LED calibration.
Calibration of Liquid Path Sensor: Proceed by entering the
sub-menu for the liquid path sensor calibration option and
click the "Start" button, the instrument will initiate the process
liquid sensor calibration. After calibration, click "Confirm" and
the system will display the calibration parameters for liquid
sensor.
Thermistor Calibration: It is mainly used to calibrate the
reaction temperature. When there is a deviation in the
reaction temperature, the calibration of thermistor can be
conducted. Accurately measure the temperature of the
reaction cell, then input the measured temperature and click
"Save", and then the thermistor calibration is completed.
Analog Output Calibration: It is used to calibrate analog
outputs and requires a high precision 900 Ω resistor.
Connect the resistor to the analog output to be calibrated,
then connect the multi-meter to measure current output, and
use "–"and "+" to adjust current value to 20 mA.

Instrument Diagnosis

Inst rum e nt di a gnosi s is use d to dia gno se the c ore
components of the instrument. Instrument diagnosis includes
valve diagnosis, injection pump diagnosis, heating equipment
diagnosis, input diagnosis and output diagnosis.
Valve Diagnosis: It is used to diagnose the ten-way valve
and reagent switching three-way valve. For the ten-way valve,
the current position will be displayed, and the target position
can be set. The reagent switching three-way valve includes a
left side and a right side, and the status position can be
changed by switching. After the setting is finished, click
"Execute", and the ten-way valve and reagent switching
three-way valve will be switched according to the set
positions.

Injection Pump: It includes three-way valve position,
injection pump target position, injection speed and delay. The
Left and Right are used to determine whether the valve port at
the upper end of the injection pump is on the left side or right
side. The Position of Injection Pump is used to determine the
position of the injection pump. When the current position is
greater than the set value, it is push. When the current value is
less than the set value, it is suction. Click "Execute" to
execute according to the set parameters. When clicking
"Initialize", the pump will reset.
Heating Equipment: It is used to control heating and read
the current temperature of the reaction cell and measuring
cell. When the heating device is turned off, the current
temperature will gradually decrease. Be sure to turn on the
switch of heating device when exiting the heating equipment
diagnosis, so as to avoid abnormal measurement problem
caused by switching off the heating device.
Input: Input diagnosis is used to diagnose the state of inputs.
Through input diagnosis, the state of digital input 1 and digital
input 2 can be seen to be On or Off.
Output: Output diagnosis is used to diagnose analog outputs
and relays. Set the analog output value, and then an external
instrument can be used to test the corresponding current
value at the same time to compare with the output, so as to
judge whether the analog output is accurate. For a relay, it is
to test whether it is On or Off, set On or Off at the same time,
and then test the state of the relay, so as to know whether the
relay performs according to the setting.
System Management
System management includes Restoring Factory Settings,
Software Upgrade, and Service Life of Components.
Restoring Factory Settings is used to restore the original
factory state, Software Upgrade is used for upgrade software,
and Service Life of Components is used to view the overall
service life and remaining service life of the instrument.
Restoring Factory Settings: It is used to restore the original
factory state. When restoring factory settings, note that once
the recovery is implemented, all data and settings except the
factory calibration curve will be deleted and the instrument will
restart.
