Operating Tips
• Upon startup, the photometer automatically proceeds to the zeroing process.
Every time the photometer powers on, it must be re-zeroed.
Battery
Compartment
• To re-zero the photometer, it must be turned off and back on again.
Cover (B) • A series of readings can be taken without re-zeroing, as long as the photome-
ter stays on during the series.
Seal Ring (A)
• When the vial is appropriately seated in the sample compartment, the cap is
almost touching the top edge of the cell adapter.
• Protect photometer from extreme humidity, corrosive fumes and dusty areas.
Store in a cool, dry place.
Instrument • Remove the batteries when the photometer is not in use.
Back Screws • Press the ! key to turn the display back light on or off.
• When moving the photometer from one temperature extreme to another, wait
at least 10 minutes before use to allow photometer to come to temperature
Batteries equilibrium.
• To avoid errors caused by stray light, do not use the instrument in bright
sunlight.
• Contamination of the optics in the sample chamber will result in incorrect
measurements. The windows in the sample chamber should be checked at
Notch regular intervals and cleaned as necessary. Use a soft moist cloth or cotton
swab for cleaning purposes.
To ensure that the instrument is waterproof: Displays and Troubleshooting
• seal ring (A) must be in position E01: Light absorption too great (dirty optics)
• battery compartment cover (B) must be fixed with the four screws E20/E21: Too much light reaching detector

Setting Date and Time
Upon initial start-up, the SAM will display "Set", "dAtE", and "YYYY", then a 4 digit
number. Proceed to Step 4 in the procedure below to set the date and time, or
power the instrument off and on again to bypass this process. At any time that
the time and/or data need to be reset, follow steps 1-6 of the procedure below.

releasing the Power key. Once three decimal points appear in the display,
release the Mode key. The display will show "di 5".
2. Press and release the ! key until the display shows arrows in the upper right
and lower left corners of the display, pointing to "Time" and "Date".
3. Press the Mode key. "Set", "dAtE" will briefly appear in the display.
4. Date and time settings are displayed in the following order: Year ("YYYY"),
Month ("MM"), Day ("dd"), Hour ("hh"), Minutes ("mm"). Increase the
displayed value for each setting by pressing the Mode key or decrease the
value by pressing the Zero/Test key until the desired value is displayed.
5. Press the ! key to save the displayed value and to proceed to the next
setting.
6. After setting the minutes, press the ! key. The display will flash "iS" "SEt" and
then will return to the measurement mode.

Recall of Stored Data


The SAM photometer automatically stores the last 15 data sets. To recall stored
data:
1. Press the Mode key and hold. Turn the instrument on by pressing and
releasing the Power key. Once three decimal points appear in the display,
release the Mode key. The display will show "di 5".
Note: If the instrument is already on, press and hold the ! key for at least 4
seconds and release to access the stored data.
2. Press the Mode key. The photometer will display the stored data sets in the
following format:
a. Sample Number: nXX (e.g. n15, n14, … n1)
b. Year: XXXX (e.g. 2017)
c. Date: mm.dd (e.g. 03.15)
d. Time: hh.mm (e.g. 12:05)
e. Analyte
f. Result
3. Press the Zero/Test key to repeat the current data set.
