This software manual describes step by step how to operate successfully with the ½ 19"
and 19" MLT analyzer module and analyzer of the NGA 2000 Series.
Chapter two shows the structure of the MLT software menus. Chapter three describes the
display and the keyboard of the analyzer. Chapter four describes the basic controls with
detailed illustrations. So you can easily compare the actual display of the analyzer module
with the illustrations of the manual.
Chapter five describes the expert configurations of the analyzer module and of the Input/
Output Modules (I/O modules). Chapter six describes the system configuration. The layout
of both chapters is not as detailed as in chapter four. Normally, the way to a certain menu
of the MLT software is described with the software catchwords you have to press to reach
this menu. You will find the illustration of the corresponding LCD screen at the end of the
catchword listing. After that you can read the meaning of the functions and variables of
each expert or system configuration menu.
Some contents of the expert configurations are not important for each customer. It depends
on the configuration of your NGA 2000 system, relative to the following components:
Control Module CM
Analyzer Module AM
Input/Output Modules I/O's (SIO = Standard I/O, DIO = Digital I/O,
System Auto Calibration I/O, Analog Output with 3 Alarms I/O,
Auto Calibration I/O)
You can distinguish the following system units and SIO/DIO configurations:
