If you were doing a leak test, you would change the value in the box labeled “Leak Ref” to a reference
value. This is the value you wish to classify as a leak. If the partial pressure of the mass selected for leak
testing approaches this value, a tone is generated. The tone goes up in pitch the closer the partial pressure
is to the reference value.
If you wish to change to a linear scale, click the button labeled “Log”. This toggle switch goes back and
