3.4 First test

1. First test, if not change the temperature and time settings, the moisture analyzer defaults to factory defaults.
2. Put empty sample pan on the holder (see section 2.3).
3. Press the “TARE” to clean weight.
4. Put the sample on the pan (Sample weight should be heavy than 1g, the general 3-5g).
5. Close the heating cover, press the "Start / Stop" button to start the test. At this point, test tube lights, fans turn on, tested symbol in the upper left flashing. While rolling on the screen displays the current temperature, has been test time, result of the current sample.
6. End of the test, the lamp automatic shut off, the buzzer alarm. Then the sample is displayed on the result, test time, current temperature and the parameter setting mode.

Note: Don't touch the sample plate ,the temperature is too high now.

7. Press the "Reset" button, the instrument returns to weighing mode.

3.5 Parameters Setting

3.5.1 Test parameter storage and recall

a. The instrument can store a total of 16(0-F)group of tested parameters. Each group can set the test method, stop mode, time and time test parameters.
b. In weighing mode, press the "Settings" button to enter the parameter setting mode, then store the address number (the number show the highest bit) is flashing. Press "down" or "up" key to select the desired address number, the 0 is the factory setting,1-F for the user store.
c. The memory address number 0 means factory settings, then click "ENTER" button to exit the settings back to weighing mode. At this point tested mode is the factory defaults.
d. When the memory address range for the 1-F any one number, press "ENTER" key, and enter the parameter setting after the completion of a parameter (tested mode, stop mode, time mode) setting. Press the "TARE" key, the address number of the test parameters have been stored.

3.5.2 Test mode and setting

a. Standard test mode：( )
This mode is the factory setting, suitable for most samples. Test temperature can be set, the sample is tested to a temperature, and keep to the test ends automatically.
b. Rapid test mode: ( )
This mode is suitable for samples with higher content. You can set the test temperature, test the temperature will exceeds the set value, the future will be reduced to the set temperature and hold until the test
ends automatically.
c. Gentle test mode: ( )
This mode is suitable for low content, surface casing is easy to form, easy to burn the sample. From the test began to rise to the long time required to set temperature, test up even slowly. Test time user selectable.
d. Press the "MENU" to enter the parameter setting mode, press the "ENTER" until the test mode, the icon flashes . Press "UP"or"Down"choose the mode you need.and press "ENTER"confirm.

3.5.3 Stop mode setting：

a. Automatic stop mode：（ ）
Test the sample within the specified time during the weight loss of less
than 2mg will automatically stop when the test. This mode after 15 seconds in the test effect.
b. Manual stop mode：（ )
Sample test process is the continuing until the press the "start/stop" button to end test.
c. Timing Stop Mode：（ )

3.5.6 For example：

a. Sample：water，
b. Press the "MENU" to enter the parameter setting mode, choose the ( ),temperature:120℃，Press "ENTER" go to weighing state
c. Put a dry paper on the pan, and press "Tare" clean the weight.
Put on the 3g water on the paper ,until the readability stable. Press" START / STOP " begin test.
Waiting for it sop. look the result. The m% will be 100%.
Weighing error or sample weight deficiency can lead to the result of the
test a deviation

3.6 Calibration

When the instrument error or improper operate. Calibration weights can be adjusted with accuracy.
Press "Reset" key and does not release until it display“-cal-”,
Then flashing “100.000”, put on the calibration weight, then it will display "=
= = = = =",
until it display “100.000” remove the weight, it will display "= = = = = = "again, Waiting it show" 0.000 ", the calibration is completed.
