CREATE OR EDIT A DILUTE PROGRAM
For use as a diluter, the pump is first primed with the diluent. Then, a dilute cycle consists of two separate actions,
sample and delivery. For the sample action, the outlet end of the tubing is placed in the container holding the sample.
The pump runs opposite the programmed direction to draw the sample volume into the tube. For the delivery action, the
outlet end of the tubing is moved to the receiving container, and after the hold time, the delivery volume is pumped out of
the pump. The sample volume plus the diluent volume equals the delivery volume.
To create a new dilute program, ensure that the console displays the PROGRAM MENU. If any other menu appears,
press the BACK key until the PROGRAM MENU is displayed.
Press the arrow under NEW to create a new program or press the arrow under EDIT to select a program to revise.
Follow the flowchart in Figure 12 to create or edit a dilute program.
