About the Software

The analyzer allows other computer programs to run while an automatic operation is in progress.

Report options can be specified when creating the sample file. When running an analysis, data gathered during the analysis process are compiled into the predefined reports. Reports can also be defined and generated after an analysis has been run. Each selected report is displayed on its own tab and reflects data collected during the analysis.

The MicroActive feature offers a Windows interface with an easy way to collect, organize, archive, reduce raw data, and store sample files for later use. Scalable and editable graphs, and copy and paste graphics, are easily generated. Customized reports can be viewed on a computer monitor, printed, or exported for use in other programs.

In addition to customizable standard reports, user defined calculations and reports can be created through the Advanced reports feature (using Python).

Data can be manipulated and displayed interactively using MicroActive reports.

Software Setup

 

If the computer is to be connected to a network, a second Ethernet port on the computer must be used for that purpose.

The Setup program is located on the installation media and is used to reinstall the software and make analyzer changes — such as adding or removing a unit, etc.

 

If the IP address needs to be changed on the computer connected to the analyzer, refer to the computer's operating system manual or the internet for instructions. The IP address for the computer and the IP address specified in the setup program must match. The IP address must be 192.168.77.100.

Analysis Modes

The analysis program supports four analysis modes:

In Standard mode, the system performs nitrogen, or similar gas, analyses at 77 K. All analyses must use the same gas. Samples can be removed and added to any of the ports without disturbing the analyses being performed on other ports.

In High Throughput mode, up to six nitrogen, or similar gas, analyses are started together. All analyses must use the same analysis gas and the same Psat gas, which may be different from the analysis gas. Once a set is started, no other samples can be started until the set is complete. The data collection is done in parallel. This mode also supports measured freespace.

In Krypton mode, the analyses are started together. Port 2, 4, or 6 (depending on system configuration) is used to store Krypton for dosing. The data collection is done sequentially — one analysis starts and completes before the next is started.

In Micropore mode, up to six analyses are started together. Once a set is started, no other samples can be started until the set is complete.

Each analysis port is equipped with an elevator that raises and lowers the analysis bath fluid dewar automatically. A removable shield to enclose the dewar should be used for safety purposes.

The sample saturation pressure (Psat) tube is located next to the sample analysis port. Gas inlet ports and cable connections are located on the side panel of the analyzer.

The use of isothermal jackets maintains a stable thermal profile along the full length of the sample and Psat tubes.
