General Setup

This screen shows the current time and date for the instrument, as well as the temperature scale.  The temperature mode can be changed from this screen, but the time cannot be changed unless the MZA software is closed.  This can be done through the following steps:

 

 

Manually Setting the Time, Date, and Time Zone

1. 1. Log in to the PGA 3510 touch screen using the supervisor access code (by default, this code is ‘2’).

2. 2. Access the Instrument Setup →  General Setup menu.

3. 3. Select “Shut Down Software” followed by “Yes”.

4. 4. The program will shut down and a Windows CE screen will appear.

5. 5. Click the time in the lower right corner (press the stylus in this corner if the time does not automatically appear).

6. 6. Set the time, date, and time zone to the desired settings

7. 7. Select “OK”

8. 8. Double-click on the “SaveRegs” icon.

9. 9. Select “OK” from the Registry Save Complete notification.

10. 10. Turn the instrument off and wait for the screen to turn off.

11. 11. Turn the instrument back on.

12. 12. The instrument will automatically boot up as a gas analyzer with the IP address that has been manually entered.

 

NOTE: If touch screen is recording data with date and time information that is "shifted" from that displayed in the external datalogging software (e.g., readings at 9am are displayed as 11am), then the time zone and daylight savings settings on the external computer may need to be adjusted, in addition to performing the procedure above.
