This software manual describes step by step how to operate successfully with the
NGA 2000 Series 19" TFID (Thermo-FID) analyzer modules and analyzers.
Chapter 2 shows the TFID software menu structure. Chapter 3 describes the analyzers
display and keyboard as well as the main menu and submenus. Chapter 4 describes the
basic controls incl. calibration with detaile d illustra tions. So you ca n easily comp are the
actual analyzer (module) display with the illustrations of this manual.
Chapter 5 describes the expert configurations of the analyzer module and of the I
utput Modules (I/O modules). Chapter 6 describes the system configuration and
O
nput/
diagnostics. The layout of both chapters is not as detailed as of chapter four. By default,
the way through the menus is described giving the menu lines you have to enter
sequentially to reach a specific menu within the TFID software . At the end of this
description you will find an illustration of the final submenu screen followed by set up
instructions and explanations of functions and variables of each expert or system
configuration menu.Chapter 7 will give you some information about the display controls.
Not all sections of Chapter 5(expert configurations) are important for each operator.
Which section is of interest depends on the NGA 2000 configuration with reference to the
following components:
♦
Control Module CM
♦
Analyzer Module AM
♦
Input/Output Modules I/O's (SIO = Standard I/O, DIO = Digital I/O)
♦
Network I/O Modules Analog Output with 3 Alarms I/O, Auto Calibration I/O,
System Auto Calibration I/O

Startup and Operation, General Notes and Main Menu
3.1 Starting and Initializing (Refer to the operation manual, too !)
After switching on the TFID analyzer / analyzer module ( as part of a NGA network), the
initialization procedure will be performed. . A self test is started showing a sequence of
several screens with information about the initialization status, software revision notes and
the
tag:
(C) 2000 FISHER-ROSEMOUNT Analytical

LCDReset
F1F2F3F4F5
Language:P010/01/00
Initializing Network
Initializing network interface
bort
The network is initialized while the screen shows the messages “Initializing network
interface” , “ Searching for nodes” and “Calculating binds”.
If you press the F1-key during the initializing, you will reset the LCD brightness and
contrast to factory settings (see also section 7). Pressing the F3-key will abort the
network initializing. There will be no connection to any analyzer module. Only the control
module menus (platform or TFID analyzer) will be available.
At the end of the initializing procedure you can see the single component display of
channel one (see illustration on next page). It is the starting point to all the other channel
displays, menus and submenus.
The instructions of the basic controls (chapter four) are all beginning at the single component display. Since this screen is customer configurable the actual analyzer display
might differ from the one shown in this manual (see section 5.1.8 pg. 5-49 and section 7).

3.2 Display and Function
The LCD screen shows all analyzer measurement values and all customer instructions.
You can operate with five function keys, four arrow keys (cursors) and the enter key. The
function of each key depends on:
♦
the type of analyzer/analyzer module used
♦
the optional auxiliary modules (e.g. I/O boards) used
♦
the individual menu displayed
In case of power failure all customer specific module parameters are saved in a battery-
powered buffer.
3.3 "TAG" and Operating Keys
At the top left of each menu page you will find the tag of the current channel.
Typical tags:
♦ TFID/R1: T
♦
MLT/CH1/R1: MLT Analyzer or Analyzer Module / CHannel 1 / Range 1
By default screen dumps in this manual will show "TAG". Specific TFID menu pages will use
"TFID" instead to show this property.

4 Analyzer Basic Controls (
Calibration) & Setup
Chapter 4 "Analyzer basic controls (calibration) & setup" describes the most important
measurement and calibration functions of your TFID/MLT analyzer / analyzer module.
All steps are figured with detailed illustrations and operation instructio ns. In the left column
you can see display and keyboard of the NGA front panel. The keys you have to press are
illustrated in black. In the right column you can read the instructions and notes. All
instructions will begin with any single component display and will end with the corresponding single component display after the setups are done. So you can easily compare the
actual display of the analyzer / analyzer module with the illustrations of this manual.
Example:
You want to change from the single component display of the TFID (propane) to the single
component display of the MLT channel 2 (CO).
• Picture one shows the starting situation: single component display of propane.
• Picture two shows the result you get if you press the F4 -key (Channel):
single component display of CO.

In the menu "Span Gas Definition (2/2)" you will find special span gas parameters for the
TFID.
Lines of variables "Span gas carbon atoms" and "Response factor":
The TFID originally measures the carbon atoms of a gas. This means this value has to be
converted for displaying concentrations in "ppm" and other units. For correct conversion it
is necessary to determine the number of carbon atoms of the span gas additionally to the
conversion factor from ppm to mg/Nm³.
The raw measurement also differs with different kinds of hydrocarbons, so you have to
enter the response factors for the type of hydrocarbons which depends on the analyzer
too.
Note: For tables of response and conversion factors refer to the appendix at the end
of this manual. The Thermo-FID operation manual (No.: 90 003 806) does include a
table of response factors, too.
Line of variables "Span gas name":
In this line you can enter the real name of the span gas you want to use, e.g. "Propane".
Note I:
To set identical parameters for sample gas, enter the menu "General Concentration
Measurement Setup" (see section 5.1.10, pg. 5-55).
Important note about calibrating a TFID analyzer !
All measurement values are based on the data entered for carbon atoms, response factor
and "ppm -> mg/Nm³" conversion factor!
If only one of these values is changed, new calibration is required, otherwise the analyzer
will show wrong values.
This note is valid for sample gas parameters, too!

Lines of variables "Max. zero calibration deviation" / "Max. span calibration deviation":
These two variables define if zero calibration and span calibration are executed or not.
The value entered in line "Max. zero calibration deviation" refers to the smallest span gas
range out of range 1...4 and defines one single "zero tolerance" for all ranges. The zero
calibration gas applied has to generate a signal within this tolerance around 0, otherwise
the calibration will run into time out. The value entered in line "Max. span calibration
deviation" defines "span tolerances" calculated for each range 1...4 separately. The span
gas applied for calibration has to generate a signal within the tolerance around the current
end of range value to start calibration.
Line of variables "Check calibration deviation":
♦
Enabled: The deviation control during the calibration procedure will be based on the
values of the menu "Deviation Parameters".
♦
Disabled: The calibration procedure is executed without deviation control. Any
calibration will be accepted.
Result: Max. calibration procedure time over limit;

The setup in these lines is defining a bandwidth in percentage of span gas for stability
control during the calibration procedure: If signal stability is out of this tolerance during the
first stability time period (see note on pg. 5-11), stability control procedure will start again
automatically. This procedure will be repeated as long as the signal is out of the tolerance
limits, but longest until the end of the maximum procedure time ("Time over limit").
Defining a very small deviation tolerance owns the risk that the calculated deviation is out
of range during the stability time (as defined in "Calibration Procedure Setup", pg. 5-10 ff.)
and the calibration will run into time out. If you choose a very large deviation tolerance the
calibration will be executed in ranges with poor stability too.
Standard value: 10 % or 20 %
To disable this check and calibrate anyway set the value to 100 %.

Lines of variables "Purge time" / "Procedure time-out" and
"Stability time" / "Averaging time" – Information about calibration procedures setup:
The measurement signal should be stable in a certain range before zeroing and spanning.
Therefore the analyzer cell should be purged with zero gas or span gas before calibration.
This purging time is followed by the stability time. During this time the average over a
number of signals is calculated, where the number of signals taken into account is
depending on stability time and averaging time. The averaging time defines the time
difference between two signals. If the deviation calculated over all these values is less
5 - 10
NGA 2000
ETC00612(1) [NGA-e (TFID SW 3.4.X)] 06/01
than the allowed maximum calibration deviation (see menu "Tolerances", pg. 5-8/9), the
calibration will start. If not, the stability contro l is starting again until a stable measu rement
is possible or the time in the line "Procedure times-out after" is reached.

Line of variables "Analog output during calibration":
Here you can determine if you want to hold the analog output and the limits of a local SIO
in the TFID analyzer module during calibration. The setup for a platform or TFID analyzer
SIO has to be done in the menu "Analog Outputs" (see 5.2.1 p. 5-87).
♦
Tracking: The analog output signal is following to the signal during the whole calibration procedure.
♦
Holding: During the whole calibration procedure the analog output signal is fixed to the
last value before calibration started. This adjustment is useful if limits are controlled
using the analog output.

Notes:
♦
Time controlled calibration is only possible if span gas is supplied using a valve gear! If
a valve gear is not connected you have to select "Never" in all lines containing "Day of
week".
♦
Zero gas calibration should be performed before starting span gas calibration.
Therefore the starting time of the zero gas calibration should be earlier than the starting
time of span gas calibration. If you select the option "Zero+Span calibration" the zeroing
will run prior to spanning automatically.

The menu "Linearization" and its submenus allow to set up and start the calculation to
linearize the TFID analyzer channel.
Background:
The relation between the optical absorption of a gas and its concentration is not linear
within the whole measuring range. Therefore the analyzer's measurement value has to be
linearized. You can linearize manual or semi-automatically. This chapter describes the
manual linearization. If you want to linearize semi-automatically contact your customer
service.
Conditions:
♦
Before you start linearization you have to calibrate the largest range of the channel
(usually range 4) with zero gas and span gas.
♦
You have to record a set of raw values/setpoint values to linearize a channel. You need
at minimum 6 raw values and their corresponding setpoint values: zero, end of range
and 4 values in between. You should take 10 to 15 values (maximum: 30) to improve
the precision of the linearization curve.
Executing the linearization:
1) Disable the linearization:
Prior to recording linearization values you have to disable the current linearization to
avoid the calculation of the new curve being influenced by old values:

(More...). There are at maximum 30 lines available. The current menu page number is
always displayed in the headline. If you have less than 30 values set the first unused
values to "0"!
Notes:
♦
Another way entering the values is entering the setpoint value first and then the
corresponding raw value. In addition it is possible to enter all setpoints first and in a
second pass all raw values (or vice versa).
♦
The setpoint value entered must belong to the raw value (e.g. setpoint1 - raw1;
setpoint2 - raw2)! Do not mix values, the calculation of the linearization will be wrong!

Programming and starting the calculator (☞☞☞☞ Consider the example pg. 5-47/48 !):
1) Disable the calculator:
•
Before you will begin with the programming, you select "Disabled" in the line
"Calculator is" to avoid starting calculation while you are writing the program.
2) Editing the program:
•
Press the
↵↵↵↵
-key or the →→→→ -key in the line "Programming..." to enter the sub-menu
"Program", where y ou can i nsert y our pr ogram step by step.

A calculator program consists of operands like concentration or flow and of operators
like the addition command. You have to insert a code in each program line for each
operator and each variable or constant.

End of program
You need to set every operator in the line above the corresponding variable. After
each calculating step you need to store the intermediate result and to delete the
memory before you continue with the next step. Each program must end with the
command "End of program" (code -17).
3) Inserting constants:
•
Press the
↵↵↵↵
-key or the →→→→ -key in the line "Constants..." of the menu "Programmable
Calculator" to switch to the corresponding submenu, where you can define at
maximum four constants, e.g. conversion constant from ppm to mg/m3.
4) Determination of the units:
•
Press the
↵↵↵↵
-key or the →→→→ -key in the line "Units..." of the menu "Programmable
Calculator" to enter the submenu "Calculator Result Units" to set the unit the
calculator's result shall be displayed, e.g. ppm, mg/Nm
•
Note: The units may be set while the program is running too.
3
, Vol% and so on.
5) Starting the program:
•
Select "Enabled" in the line "Calculator is" of the menu "Programmable Calculator" to
start the calculation.
6) Check the results:
•
The results of up to four calculators will be displayed in the last four lines of the menu
"Programmable Calculator".
Example for programming a calculation:
You want to calculate the whole content of NOx as NO2 in mg/m3 from the concentrations
of NO in ppm (Cannel 1) and of NO2 in ppm (Channel 2). So you have to add the single
concentrations and then to multiply with a constant:
(ppm NO + ppm NO2) • "conversion constant (here: 2,05 mg/ml)" = NOx as mg/m3 NO2
So you will get the following program:
Code
Step-
Program Description
No.
1 -1 Add to intermediate result (At the beginning the memory is zero)
2 5 NO-Concentration from channel 1 (ppm)
3 -1 Add to IR (the concentration of channel 1)
4 10 NO
-Concentration from channel 2 (ppm)
2
5 -13 Store the result of the addition to memory and set IR = 0
6 1 Result 1
7 -9 Add memory to IR (= sum of NO and NO
in ppm)
2
8 1 Result 1
9 -8 Multiply IR with constant ([ppm NO + ppm NO2] • "conversion constant")
10 1 Result 1 (= "conversion constant" ppm to mg/m
11 -14 Store IR to result and set IR = 0
12 1 Result 1 (= mg/m

13 -17 End of program
You have to insert the codes of the table into the corresponding lines of the submenu
"Program". If the program consists of more than ten steps, you can open another menu
page with the F5 -key. Maximum of program steps: 100; maximum of results: 4; maximum
of constants: 4.
