  Auto range mode (AUTO mode, refer to Section 6.7.6) gives the analyzer the ability 
to automatically switch the A1 and A2 analog outputs between two ranges (low and 
high) dynamically as the concentration value fluctuates.  
EXAMPLE:  
A1
 OUTPUT:  Output Signal = 0-5 VDC representing 0-1000 ppm concentration values 
A2
 OUTPUT:  Output Signal = 0 – 10 VDC representing 0-500 ppm concentration values. 
A3
 OUTPUT:  Test channel; e.g., PMT signal = 0-5V 
Output A4 is not available on the T100 Analyzer in standard configuration. 
5.4.2. PHYSICAL RANGE VERSUS ANALOG OUTPUT REPORTING 
RANGES 
The entire measurement range of the T100 is 0 – 20,000 ppb, but many applications use 
only a small part of the analyzer’s full measurement range.  This creates two 
performance challenges:  
The width of the T100’s physical range can create data resolution problems for most 
analog recording devices.  For example, in an application where the expected 
concentration of SO
2
 is typically less than 500 ppb, the full scale of expected values is 
only 0.25% of the instrument’s full 20,000 ppb measurement range. Unmodified, the 
corresponding output signal would also be recorded across only 0.25% of the range of 
the recording device. 
The T100 solves this problem by allowing the user to select a scaled reporting range for 
the analog outputs that only includes that portion of the physical range relevant to the 
specific application. Only the reporting range of the analog outputs is scaled, the 
physical range of the analyzer and the readings displayed on the front panel remain 
unaltered. 
Applications where low concentrations of SO
2
 are measured require greater sensitivity 
and resolution than typically necessary for measurements of higher concentrations.  
The T100 solves this issue by using two hardware physical ranges that cover the 
instrument’s entire 0 and 20,000 ppb measurement range: a 0 to 2,000 ppb physical 
range for increased sensitivity and resolution when measuring very low SO
2
 
concentrations, and a 0 to 20,000 ppb physical range for measuring higher SO
2
 
concentrations. The analyzer’s software automatically selects which physical range is in 
effect based on the analog output reporting range selected by the user. 
 
If the high end of the selected reporting range is 
 2,000 ppb. The low physical range is 
selected. 
 
If the high end of the selected reporting range is 
 2,001 ppb. The high physical range 
is selected. 
Once properly calibrated, the analyzer’s front panel display will accurately report 
concentrations along the entire span of its 0 and 20,000 ppb physical range regardless of 
which reporting range has been selected for the analog outputs and which physical range 
is being used by the instrument’s software.
