Set Up Data I/O

If you installed binary input, alarms, or the 4-20 mA output, configure settings for those features now. Select the
I/O tab and configure the appropriate settings. Note that you may need to consult with your remote operations
center to determine some values. See page 77 through page 78 for details on configuring these settings.
Note:
If the TOC level in your sample water is typically below 50 ppb, schedule a regular
TOC Autozero. See "Programming the TOC Autozero" on page 105 for details.

Step 9: Rinsing the Analyzer

Before placing the Analyzer into normal operation, you should rinse the Analyzer for 12 hours by running it in
Rinse mode and then letting it run in On-Line mode.
1. Select the Maintenance tab.
2. Press the Advanced button, then press the Advanced Setup button.
3. Press the Auto Restart button. Make sure Rinse Down is set to On. If it is set to Off, press the Rinse
Down button, and then press the On button.
4. Press the Back button, then press the Rinse button.
5. The Analyzer will run in Rinse mode, and then will automatically switch into On-Line mode. Let the
Analyzer run for 12 hours. No data will be reported for the Rinse mode.
6. After 12 hours, press the Stop Analysis button.
7. Open the Analyzer case and again visually inspect the Analyzer for leaks, especially around the DI water
cartridge. If a leak is detected, make sure all fittings are tight and secure. Also confirm the water level in
the DI water cartridge and, if necessary, turn off the Analyzer and add more water.
8. Close the Analyzer case.
The Analyzer is now ready to take valid TOC measurements. If you want to customize additional settings, do so
now; consult Chapter 4: Basic Analyzer Operation for details.
