TGA Series Trace Gas Analyzers FIGURE 7-5. TGA Status with a detected error (bottom) Any detected errors will be highlighted in red, with error messages displayed at the bottom as shown in the right panel of FIGURE 7-6. FIGURE 7-6. TGA Status window without error (left) and with error (right) and line lock manually disabled. NOTE The TGA Windows is used for LN2-cooled lasers, and reports the laser temperature in K. The TGA TEC software is used for TEcooled lasers, and reports the laser temperature in °C. 7.2.3 Settings Window The Settings window is used to display and change parameters associated with the laser, detectors, calculations, and other miscellaneous information. In the Settings window, the far left side provides drop-down menus which allow the user to set the parameters or retrieve additional information for each of four major categories: • Laser • Detectors • Calculations • Other The left panel is shown in FIGURE 7-7 with the submenu for each category expanded. The submenus are explained in the following sections. 52
