1 Introduction
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 You can distinguish the following system units and SIO/DIO configurations:
System Unit SIO/DIO-Configuration

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
F1 F2 F3 F4 F5
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.
Example:
End of range: 1000 ppm
Max. calibration deviation: 20 % (equivalent 200 ppm)
Expected value: 990 ppm
Displayed value 740 ppm
Deviation: 250 ppm (more than 200 ppm!)
Result: Max. calibration procedure time over limit; Calibration will be canceled !
Potential solutions:
Adjust 100 % in the line "Max. zero calibration deviation" resp. "Max. span calibration deviation" or select "Disabled" in the line "Check deviation".
Result: Any Calibration will be accepted!
Line of variables "Stability tolerance - range 1, ..., 4": 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

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.

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.

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:

2) Zero and span gas calibration:
Calibrate the largest range (usually: range 4) with zero and span gas.
The method is described in 4.5, pg. 4-21 and 4.6, pg. 4-25 or in 5.1.1, pg. 5-15 to 5-
17.
3) Recording the raw values/setpoint values table:
If you have a defined gas flow, you can read each raw value display at the top right in any menu or single component display.

If you have more than 10 values you may enter additional menu pages pressing F5 (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!

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.

, 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)
