3 Operation
Use the Δ∇ arrow keys to increment the respective parameters as desired.
Press Enter to accept the values and return to Analyze mode. (See note
below.) Repeat for each range you want to set.
Note: The ranges must be increasing from low to high, for example,
if Range 1 is set to 0–10 % and Range 2 is set to 0–100 %, then
Range 3 cannot be set to 0–50 % since that makes Range 3
lower than Range 2.
Ranges, alarms, and spans are always set in either percent or ppm units, as
selected by the operator, even though all concentration-data outputs change
from ppm to percent when the concentration is above 9999 ppm.
Note: When performing analysis on a fixed range, if the concentra-
tion rises above the upper limit as established by the operator
for that particular range, the output saturates at 1 V dc (or 20
mA). However, the digital readout and the RS-232 output
continue to read regardless of the analog output range.
To end the session, send:

to the analyzer from the computer.

3.8.2 The Curve Algorithm Screen

The Curve Algorithm is a linearization method. It provides from 1 to 9
intermediate points between the ZERO and SPAN values, which can be normal-
ized during calibration, to ensure a straight-line input/output transfer function
through the analyzer.
Each range is linearized individually, as necessary, since each range will
usually have a totally different linearization requirement.
To linearize the ranges, you must first perform the four steps indicated at
the beginning of section 3.8 Programming. You will then be in the second
System menu screen.

3.8.2.1 Manual Mode Linearization

To linearize manually, you must have previous knowledge of the nonlinear
characteristics of your gases. You enter the value of the differential between the
actual concentration and the apparent concentration (analyzer output). TAI has
tabular data of this type for a large number of gases, which it makes available to
customers on request. See Appendix for ordering information. To enter data:
