Self test During the self-test, all cells must be removed and the cell shaft cover closed.
Note
The result of the self-test can be viewed and printed with the [Info] function
key (see section 4.17).
Warm-up time After switching on the photometer requires a warm-up time of 15 minutes.
Reproducibility of measurement data is restricted during the warm-up time.
Therefore, do not measure during the warm-up time.
During the warm-up time, a progress bar appears on the display next to the
date. The progress bar disappears as soon as the warm-up time is over.
The self-test includes:
– the test of the memory,
processor,
internal interfaces,
filter and lamp
– a calibration for each
wavelength
After the self-test is completed,
the main menu is displayed.
