Overview of Sample Analysis
The 800 system indicates that it is ready to analyze samples when the following
conditions exist:
S Ready screen appears
S sample door is open
S Analyze key is lit
Do not attempt to analyze samples if the system is not ready.
The system aspirates all samples except expired gas samples. Aspiration reduces
exposure to biohazardous materials and increases precision:
S by sampling the correct volume for each analysis
S by ensuring precise sample heating before sample analysis
S by reducing instrument-to-instrument and operator-to-operator variability
Identifying the Sample Device
The system automatically identifies the sampling device. If the system cannot
identify the device, a message box appears prompting you to select one of the
following sample devices:
S 1 mL syringe
S >2 mL syringe
S capillary
Select the device type and press Enter. Then press Analyze to begin analysis.
Detecting Bubbles
