Flow Calibrate
The Flow Calibrate bu ons (Figure 6) allow calibration of the fl ow rate displayed on
the pump LCD to the fl ow rate displayed on a primary standard calibrator.
The Approx Correction (approximate correction) is the diff erence between the fl ow

rate displayed on the pump and the fl ow rate displayed on the calibrator. When
a pump is connected to a calibrator the fl ow rate is determined by the calibrator
display and not the pump display.
Adjusting the Flow Correction
To adjust the approximate correction rate, click and hold the sliding bu on, then
move the bu on to the le (decreases correction) to adjust fl ow when the calibrator
display is higher than the pump fl ow rate display or to the right (increases correction)
to adjust fl ow when the calibrator display is lower than the pump fl ow rate display.
The range of correction is ± 20 ml/min. An alternate method is to click the le and

right arrow bu ons to move the sliding bu on. The value changes as the bu on
slides le or right.
The pump should be calibrated before each sample run. Once calibrated, all volume displays will be accurate for that
fl ow rate. DataTrac will always display the last approximate correction value to which the connected pump has been
set. Changing the fl ow se ing on the pump clears the correction value (sets it to 0.0).
When calibrating, the fl ow rate displayed on the calibrator changes; the fl ow rate displayed on the
pump LCD does not change.
Reset Button
To reset the correction value to 0.0 mL/min, click once on the Reset bu on.
Multiple Pumps Checkbox
Turn off Comm Checking before setting up multiple pumps.
See Comm Checking Buttons on page 15.
If you wish to perform fl ow calibration, reset volume temperature and time,
or change parameter display scales for multiple pumps, click the Multiple
Pumps checkbox in the Flow Calibrate section of the Real Time Monitor
window.
Once checked, a separate window will open (Figure 6A). Set parameters as
desired for one pump, disconnect the interface cable from the pump, and
insert the cable plug into the interface port on another Pocket Pump. Once
all pumps are set up, click the Multiple Pumps checkbox to deselect this
Figure 6A. Multiple Pumps Checkbox
option. You will be returned to the Real Time Monitor window.
Using Flow Calibrate
Set the pump to the desired fl ow rate.
Connect the inlet port of the pump to a primary standard calibrator and read the fl ow on the calibrator display.
Set the approximate correction as needed by clicking and holding the sliding bu on and moving it le to decrease
correction or right to increase correction and recalibrate. The fl ow rate that is displayed on the calibrator should change
as result of this operation.
Example: The desired fl ow rate of the pump is 150 mL/min. Set the pump to 150 mL/min. If the calibrator reading is
157 mL/min, move the sliding bu on to the le to adjust the approximate correction to -7 mL/min and recalibrate. Repeat as
necessary until the fl ow rate displayed on the calibrator is within the required tolerance.

This example program demonstrates how to use the Pump Program Scheduler window to set a program.
A sampling operation requires the pump to sample at a constant fl ow of 100 mL/min from 8:00 AM
to 4:00 PM daily for one work week. Enter the parameters as follows:
Clear Previous History/Schedule
In the SKC Pump Scheduler window, go to the Tools menu and select Clear History (if desired); this will erase the
history from the history display and the pump’s memory. Go to the Tools menu and select Clear Schedule (if desired).
This will erase the contents of the Pump Program Scheduler displayed on the PC screen and in the connected pump’s
memory.
Set the fl ow rate
Click once on the C. Flow bu on and then click once on the New Flow bu on.
The Set Flow window will open. Click once on the 100 bu on then click once on
OK. Click once on the Rate cell in the Program Edit Bar. Flow and 100 will appear in the Mode
and Rate cells in the Program Edit Bar.
Set the start/stop date
Click once on any Monday in the Calendar. The data is highlighted. Click once on the Start Date
cell in the Program Edit Bar. The date will appear in the cell. Click once on the Stop Date cell to
enter the same date into the cell.
Set the start time
Click once on the Clock at 8. The clock hands will point to 8:00 and 8:00 will appear in the
digital display next to the Clock. Click once on the AM bu on, and then click once on the Start
Time cell of the Program Edit Bar; 8:00 AM will appear in the cell.
Click here
Set the stop time
Click once on the Clock at 4. The clock hands will point at 4:00 and 4:00 will appear in the
digital display next to the Clock. Click once on the PM bu on, and then click once on the
Stop Time cell of the Program Edit Bar; 4:00 PM will appear in the cell.
The Duration cell will display 8 Hr, which is the length of the programmed operation.
The completed program in the Program Edit Bar
Click here
Insert the program into the Pump Program Scheduler
Click once on the Insert bu on. The program will appear in the Pump Program Scheduler. The
program is still displayed in the Program Edit Bar. The Pump Program Scheduler contains a program,
which tells the pump to run at a constant fl ow of 100 mL/min from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Monday.
The same operating parameters must be entered for each day of the week.
17
Example Program
Add extra days to the program schedule
Click once on the +Day bu on. This will add 1 day to the Start Date and Stop Date
in the Program Edit Bar. Click once on Insert to place the program into the Pump
Program Scheduler.
Repeat the procedure to add an additional day to the Pump Program Scheduler until each day of the week has been
entered.
Set the desired Run Time Options
Go to the View menu and select Pump Se ings. Click on the desired options (see page 16).
Write the program to the pump
Click once on the ToPump bu on. DataTrac will write all steps contained in the Pump Program
Scheduler to the pump.

A discrepancy may occur between the pump display and the history during fl ow fault. After a fl ow fault,
the pump will enter Hold mode and will attempt to restart every 5 minutes. If the fault has not been
corrected within 15 seconds, the pump will return to Hold mode. The volume of air pumped during
attempted restarts will appear on the pump LCD, which updates every second, but will not appear in
the history.

Users must use extreme caution when altering .ini fi les.
Hibernate and Battery Life Information
The Pocket Pump features automatic powerdown (Sleep) mode a er 5 minutes in Hold. In Sleep mode the pump and
the display are off , however, the internal circuitry is still operating.
This function allows the internal computer to keep track of time. Although the other electronic circuits within the pump
are turned off , the microprocessor draws a signifi cant amount of power from the ba ery.
If the pump is programmed with a running schedule, the pump will Sleep between the time it is programmed and the
time it is due to run. This will maintain the starting time information.
The pump is required to keep track of time, via an internal timer, to preserve the recording of operations in the history.
A er programs in the Pump Program Scheduler have been completed, the pump will enter Hold mode and the internal
timer will retain time for 24 hours. A er 24 hours, the timing mechanism will stop to preserve ba ery life. The timing
history up to this point is retained and the pump enters a low power state (Hibernate) to conserve ba ery life.

7:00 AM 9:00 AM 10:00 AM 10:00 AM
Pump Programmed Program Running Program Ends after 24 hours
Sleep Mode Run Mode Sleep Mode Hibernate
A fully charged and programmed pump will last for approximately 6 days in Sleep mode before the low ba ery
detection will switch it to the Hibernate state. (A program waiting to run will prevent the pump from entering the
Hibernate state until the low ba ery condition forces the pump into Hibernate). Although DataTrac will allow the
pump to be programmed up to 21 days in the future, it is advisable to load the program as close as possible to the
program start time. It is also important to download the pump history to a PC as soon as possible a er sampling.
History and Hibernate
The History shows the state of the pump at any instant including Run, Hold, Sleep, Hibernate, Low Ba ery Hold, and
Flow Fault. All these states have a time of day associated with them, so that a correctly timed history may be produced.
When a pump is programmed, a time reference is loaded into the pump from the PC. When a history is read from the
pump, the time reference is compared with the current time on the PC to ensure the history timing is consistent.
If a Hibernate state has occurred in the history, the time reference of the pump state before the Hibernate will be
determined from the starting time reference and the time reference of the pump state a er the Hibernate will be
determined from the current PC time at download.
If more than one Hibernate state has occurred, there will be running sequences that are bounded at their start and fi nish
by Hibernate states. These sequences will contain valid timing intervals; but when the PC reads the history, the actual
start and stop times will be unknown.

“.ini” Files
Warning: The following notes are for users with thorough knowledge of DOS and Windows software.
Users must use extreme caution when altering .ini fi les.
An .ini File (C:\Windows\PPump.ini) contains a list of commands that apply to the program sequence. All commands
become eff ective when the program is sent to the pump by clicking the ToPump bu on (Figure 12). The .ini fi le may be
edited using Windows Notepad or a similar editor. Commands are not case sensitive.
The PPump.ini File contains:
UserLockOut=N
TempUnits=F
PressureUnits=inches water
ResetVolTime=n
ResetTemps=n
ClearHistory=n
HistorySeparator=9
ScheduleStart=6:45 AM
DefaultDir=
port=2
startups=33
lastused=Oct 20 2010 12:17:45 PM
fi rstused=Sep 11 2010 9:12:54 AM
Defi nitions
UserLockOut (Y or N) — Y means user can only view pump parameters by pressing the middle bu on (star). N
means user may access all functions, such as changing fl ow rate and placing pump in Hold.
TempUnits (F or C) — Shows the selected temperature scale (F for Fahrenheit or C for Celsius). Only applicable
when running in the enhanced mode
PressureUnits (inches water or mm mercury) — shows the selected pressure units. Only the fi rst le er (i or m) is
used, but the word may be spelled out for clarity.
ResetVolTime (Y or N) — Y resets volume and run time to zero.
ResetTemps (Y or N) — Y resets Min Temp, Max Temp, and TWA Temp to zero.
ClearHistory (Y or N) — Y clears all history in the pump‘s memory.
HistorySeparator (0 to 255) — The ASCII value used to separate columns in the stored history fi les. This is only needed
if history data is to be loaded into another program, i.e. a spreadsheet. The default is 9, which is the Tab character.
ScheduleStart (h:mm AM/PM i.e., 6:45 AM, 11:30 PM) — When a program schedule has been completed, it resides
in the PC memory, however, once it has expired, it has an invalid start time associated with it. The next time the
SKC Pump Scheduler window is opened, the message “No Program Schedule. Load Expired Schedule In Arbitrary
Time Frame?” will appear. If the user responds with a “Yes,” then it will reload the schedule to start the next day at
the time specifi ed. The relative start times and stop times will remain consistent with the expired program.
DefaultDir — This can be any legal directory name. This is the default directory which appears in the dialog box
whenever saving or loading a fi le from any window.
port (1 to 10) — The serial port that the pump will use to communicate with the PC. Once the user selects a port
that works, the port number will be wri en automatically.
startups (number) — Counts how many times the program has been run
lastused (date) — The last time DataTrac was run
fi rstused (date) — The fi rst time DataTrac was run

Following is an explanation of each line of the history fi le.
Line 1: HISTORY FILE (fi le type identifi er)
Line 2: 1000 (So ware revision number)
Line 3: SN 1788 (Serial number of the pump)
Line 4: 34975.431632 (Time and date that the fi le was stored. See Decoding Time Fields on page 28)
Line 5, 6, 7: The Minimum, Maximum, and time-weighted average of the data while the pump was running (Min,
Max, and TWA temp are not updated when the pump is in HOLD)
Line 8: 9 (The ASCII value of the character used as the column separator, the default is TAB)
Line 9: 8 (The number of periods in history)
Lines 10 to 17: A breakdown of each history period ordered from most recent to oldest. Each line of the history is
decoded as follows:
Column 1: Mode of Pump including the following values
0 Constant Flow mode
8 Constant Pressure mode
16 Flow Fault while in Constant Flow
24 Flow Fault while in Constant Pressure
32 Hibernate (see explanation of hibernate, page 25)
64 Low ba ery fault
Column 2: Rate of Constant Flow or Constant Pressure value. Whether the value represents Constant Flow or
Constant Pressure depends on the value in column 1
Column 3: Start Date/Time. Description of decoding method explained in decoding time fi elds below
Column 4: Stop Date/Time. Description of decoding method explained in decoding time fi elds below
Column 5: Valid (-1) or Invalid (0) Time Period. Under certain conditions (such as Hibernate or low ba ery fault)
the pump will lose its ability to accurately tell time. When this happens, Column 5 will be fl agged with a zero.
Even though the Start Time and Stop Time cannot be relied upon, the amount of time the pump spent running in
Constant Flow can still be determined by subtracting the Start Time from the Stop Time.

Power User Hints
Decoding Time Fields
Time fi elds are based on a simple mathematical relationship. The number represents the time that has elapsed since
midnight December 30, 1899, in days. For example:
Time Value Represents
0.25 Dec 30, 1899 6:00 AM
0.75 Dec 30, 1899 6:00 PM
1.5 Dec 31, 1899 Noon
365.25 Dec 30, 1900 6:00 AM
35065.625 Jan 1, 1996 3:00 PM
The integer portion of the number represents the number of days that have elapsed since December 30, 1899. The
fractional portion is the fractional part of a day (0 is midnight, 0.5 is noon and 0.9999884 is one second before midnight).
This is a time format used in several applications. For example, if these numbers are imported into Excel for Windows
they can be directly converted into time and date with the sequence:
Format, Cell, Modify, Number, Date, m/d/yy h:mm. (Note: The column width will have to be adjusted to display the
Day and Date correctly.)
