6100CR Refrigerated Sampler
Section 4 Maintenance and Special Features
WARNING
In performing the needle alignment, be very careful to keep
your fingers out from under the needle tip and away from
any other moving parts. Do not put your fingers between
the needle tip and top of the bottle.
2. Initiate the sample. As the needle moves downward onto
the bottle, manually guide it into the bottle.
3. When the needle has seated on the top of the bottle, jiggle
it slightly to make sure it is centered. The top of the bottle
valve is conical. While the needle is still seated on the bottle,
tighten the gray nut only enough to provide resistance
to movement. Do not overtighten. Run one more sample
and visually verify the alignment.
4. Replace the front shell.
4.3 Hard Reset The term Hard Reset refers to a feature that allows you to
de-program the 6100CR to the factory-installed default program.
The usual reason for doing a hard reset is when the microprocessor
locks up and you cannot access the program to make
changes or run an existing program.
CAUTION
Hard reset will erase all programming selections you have
made. It will also erase all entries made to the history log. Do
not perform a hard reset casually or without good reason.
To Hard Reset the 6100CR:
1. Turn the unit off with the On/Off key.
2. Press and hold the 9 and Right Arrow keys at the same
time.
3. While still holding the 9 and Right Arrow keys down,
press and hold the On/Off key until the sampler starts to
beep.
4. Release the On/Off key.
5. Release the other keys.
6. Turn the unit back on with the On/Off key.
4.4 Replacing the
Desiccant Bags
The 6100CR has two desiccant containers inside to protect the
electronics from moisture damage. One is located inside the
sampler motor housing. The other is located beneath the control
panel assembly.
Both units are deep inside the unit and will generally last a long
time. There is an indicator on the base by the tower, with a
window and numbers inside, that shows the condition of the desiccant.
The numbers refer to the relative humidity inside the
enclosure, with 20 standing for 20%, 30 standing for 30%, etc. As
long as the window looks blue, the desiccant is still functioning.
