2. To perform the actual SPAN calibration (for example at 100 ppm):<br />

FID-only: or PID-only: or PID/FID:<br />

Press ENTER Press ENTER Press 1, 2, or 3<br />

Apply Span Gas<br />

FID: 100.00 ppm<br />

Enter=Start<br />

Apply Span Gas<br />

PID: 100.00 ppm<br />

Enter=Start<br />

Apply Span Gas<br />

100.00 ppm<br />

Enter=Start<br />

3. Apply the appropriate span gas to the probe at ambient pressure (using a clean and<br />

labeled gas sampling bag) and then press ENTER.<br />

When only one reference span gas concentration is used, the ACCEPTED message<br />

appears for a short time and is then replaced by the normal CALIBRATION<br />

menu.<br />

When the ACCEPTED message disappears and the CALIBRATION menu<br />

appears, the SPAN reference value is stored. This value is stored in non-volatile<br />

memory until the next calibration is performed. The date and time of this calibration<br />

are stored and can be accessed through the INFO menu.<br />

4. If more than one reference span gas concentration has been defined, the span calibration<br />

display returns. Move to the next concentration point (Up/Dn keys) and<br />

repeat steps 2-3 above until each reference gas concentration point has been calibrated.<br />

Alarm Levels<br />

The <strong>TVA</strong>-<strong>1000B</strong> is supplied with three user-configurable alarms — HI Ceiling, Low Ceiling,<br />

and STEL (short term exposure limit). When any of these alarms is exceeded, an alarm message<br />

appears on the sidepack display and probe display (enhanced version only) and an alarm<br />

tone is generated. Press EXIT to acknowledge the alarm message and sounder. Once acknowledged,<br />

the display returns to the live measurement with an upper case letter representing the<br />

alarm or alarm combination appearing to the right of the display. The three types of user configurable<br />

alarms are:<br />
