Appendix A. EC150 Settings
A-7
A.2.12 Heater Control
When set to automatic, this setting applies a voltage between 0 and 4600 mV to
heaters near the optical windows of the analyzer. Heated windows inhibit the
formation of condensation, such as dew and frost, and help the analyzer
recover more quickly when precipitation has blocked the optical path.
The
Heater Control
setting is stored in non-volatile memory in the EC150
head.
A.2.13 Head Power Off
When enabled, the EC150 gas head is turned off. The head may be turn on/off
under datalogger control to conserve power or under EC100 control if the gas
head temperature is outside the operating range. The
EC100Configure()
Instruction
s in the
CRBasic
program is used to turn the gas head on/off under
datalogger control.
The
Head Power Off
setting is stored in non-volatile memory of the EC100.
A.3
ECMon
Settings for the EC150 are easily verified and/or changed by using the
Windows PC support software
ECMon
(short for Eddy Covariance Monitor),
which is found at
Before connecting the EC100 to the computer, install the USB driver through
Device Configuration Utility
(available at
).
Select the EC100 device type, and click
Install USB Driver
.
Once the driver is installed, download and run the
ECMon.exe
install file.
Launch
ECMon
and connect the EC100 electronics to the PC with the included
EC100 USB cable (pn 26563). The USB connection for the EC100 electronics
is found on the bottom of the enclosure (see FIGURE
). Once connected,
select the appropriate communications port in the
ECMon
Main Page and click
Connect
(see FIGURE
). Next click on the
Setup
button. All of the above
settings are now available for the user to change (see FIGURE
Besides changing settings,
ECMon
is also a useful tool for other common tasks
such as:
•
Monitoring real-time data from the EC150 using the Main
window
•
Performing a manual zero and span of the instrument (see Section
(p. 26)
)
•
Troubleshooting and monitoring diagnostics using the Status
window
