Standard deviation of CO concentration readings. Data points are
recorded every ten seconds using the last 25 data points. This
function can be reset to show O

stability in instruments with
those sensor options installed.

CO Measure
CO MEAS
MV
The demodulated, peak IR detector output during the measure
portion of the GFC Wheel cycle.
CO Reference
CO REF
MV
The demodulated, peak IR detector output during the reference
portion of the GFC Wheel cycle.
Measurement /
Reference Ratio
MR Ratio
-
The result of CO MEAS divided by CO REF. This ratio is the
primary value used to compute CO concentration. The value
displayed is not linearized.
Sample Pressure
PRES
In-Hg-A
The absolute pressure of the Sample gas as measured by a
pressure sensor located inside the sample chamber.
Sample Flow
SAMPLE FL
cm

/min
Sample mass flow rate as measured by the flow rate sensor in the
sample gas stream.
Sample
Temperature
SAMP TEMP

PHT DRIVE
mV
The drive voltage being supplied to the thermoelectric coolers of the
IR photo-detector by the sync/demod Board.
Slope
SLOPE
-
