As soon as a section of the temperature program is finished (e.g. after
the end of the heating period or after the end of the reaction time), the
STOP? display is overwritten.

5.4 Temperature test program

With the temperature test program, you can check the temperature in
the thermoblock with the aid of an external temperature probe that is
available as an accessory (see chapter 9 ACCESSORIES/OPTIONS).
While the temperature test program is active, the display shows the
current temperature of the thermoblock and at the same time the
measured temperature value of the external temperature probe.

The thermoreactor functions correctly if the temperature of the external

temperature probe does not deviate from the nominal temperature
value by more than 2 C.

If the deviations from the nominal value are greater, further measures
can be necessary (see chapter 7 WHAT TO DO IF...).

ba41133e09 06/2010 59
Operation CR 3200

Note
The external temperature probe has the same accuracy as the internal
temperature sensor.

5.4.1 Starting the temperature test program

Note
All other temperature programs are blocked while the temperature test
program runs.

1 Connect the external temperature probe to the socket at the

thermoreactor (see chapter 3 COMMISSIONING).
2 Insert the external temperature probe in a cell shaft.
3 Switch the thermoreactor on with e.
4 Using 8 2, select the temperature test program T.

5 Using g start the temperature test program T.

The first display line shows the nominal measuring time and the
temperature of the thermoblock. The second display line shows the
temperature of the external temperature probe. After the nominal
temperature has been reached, the measuring time is counted down in
the second display line.

During the temperature regulation phase, the thermoreactor saves the

measured temperature values of the external temperature probe in a
test report every 60 seconds.

As soon as the temperature test is finished, "PRINT" appears on the

display.

You can now output the measuring data of the temperature test to a PC
or printer.

You have the following options now:

z Connect the thermoreactor with a PC and transmit the test report to

60 ba41133e09 06/2010
CR 3200 Operation

a terminal program (see section 5.4.2).

z Connect the thermoreactor with a printer and download the test
report to the printer (see section 5.4.2).
z Leave the temperature test program with g.

The test report in the thermoreactor is erased in any case at the end.

5.4.2 Downloading the test report to an external printer/PC

To transmit the temperature test report to a printer or PC, a printer
cable or PC cable is required (see chapter 9 ACCESSORIES/OPTIONS).
You can record the test report with the aid of a so-called terminal
program on the PC side.

Generally, a terminal program serves to establish a connection to a

meter at a data interface and to communicate with the meter via a
console on the display. A terminal program usually offers the possibility
to save the contents of the console in a text file or print it. If the terminal
program is connected to the thermoreactor, it can receive the
temperature test report and display it on the console.

Terminal programs are available by different manufacturers for

different operating systems. The "HyperTerminal" terminal program is
included in Windows (versions 95 to XP). It is in the program menu
under Accessories.

More detailed information can be taken from the user information of the
terminal program.
