Besides the standard programming there are several special program functions which can be
activated selectively with each operating mode.
In the menu „MORE SETTINGS“, you can find a list with all special functions available.
Please find following a detailed description.

______________________________________________________________________________
Page 16
SPECIAL PROGRAM FUNCTIONS
Beside the standard programming features the unit also offers the following special
functions:
PROGRAMS CHANGE TIME/FLOW/EVENT MORE SETTINGS
SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
If "MORE SETTINGS" has been chosen, the following special functions are available
depending on the single operating modes:
- PROGRAMMING OK
When all the desired settings have been entered, and
this function is selected all settings are confirmed and
the display returns to the START menu.
- SERIAL SAMPLES
Number of samples per sample extraction means that each requested sample
extraction consists of x samples. If e.g. the value 3 is
entered, 3 samples are extracted successively. When
activating this function, particular attention has to be
paid to the bottle volume in order to avoid overfilling.
This function is useful if several single sample
extractions shall be effected in a very short time
to obtain a bigger sample volume.
- BOTTLE ASSIGNMENT
(First bottle / last bottle)
The first and the last bottle of a sampling cycle can be
defined. With this function a group of bottles can be
assigned to a certain program. An activation of this
function is recommended if the function “Program
linkage” is
used. The bottle group is always defined by the settings
“first bottle” and ”last bottle”.
Example:
In program 1 bottle 1up to bottle 6and
in program 2 bottle 7up to bottle 12 are selected.
Thus, after the start of program 1, bottles 1 – 6 are filled accordingly and after
the start of program 2, bottles 7 – 12 are filled.

______________________________________________________________________________
Page 17
- MIXED SAMPLE
(This menu is only available if the distributor variant with
“mixed sample bottle” is already factory set.)
The mixed sample is always filled into a separate bottle
and can be effected time- or sample-related.
Time-related:
If the time-related sample extraction is selected, an interval in minutes has to
be entered.
Sample-related:
If a sample-related sample extraction is selected, the number of samples after
which a mixed sample is to be taken has to be entered.
- PROGRAM PAUSE
(Program pause = delayed program start:
Delay between the end of program X and the start of the
next program. Defers the program cycle in the continuous
mode by the time entered.
This function is only possible if a program has been started in the
„continuous operation“ mode and leads to a deferred start (by the time
entered) of the next program.
Example: program 1 is edited with a program pause of 1 hour and is started at
8.00 h (24-hour cycle). Thus the program will be terminated at 8.00 h the next
day and the program cycle will only be started again at 9.00 h due to the
entered program pause of 1 hour. So, every day the program start will be
deferred by 1 hour.
- QT-AUTOMATIC (Q= flow, T=time)
(this feature is only available at flow-dependent
programs!)
Time-flow automatic (MINIMUM and/or MAXIMUM
Qt-TIME have to be set)
This function enables that in the flow mode (independently of the flow signal)
a sample is extracted at least after xxx minutes or at the earliest after xxx
minutes. Both functions can be activated separately or together.
Minimum QT-time: minimum time between two sample extractions.
An activation of this function is reasonable if there is only a weak flow signal
and thus the sampling interval would be very long. Thus a sample extraction is
quasi enforced to obtain at least a minimum sample volume.

______________________________________________________________________________
Page 18
Maximum QT-time: maximum time between two sample extractions.
An activation of this function is reasonable if there is a strong flow signal (e.g.
due to rain) and thus the sample interval would be very short. Sample
extractions are quasi inhibited in order to avoid the very quick filling of the
bottles. If the bottles would be filled within a very short time there would be no
bottles left to be filled within the remaining runtime of the sampling cycle.
- COMBINED EVENT MODE
This function enables the combination of a time-
dependent resp. flow-dependent program with an
event program (e.g. in case of an exceedance of a
limit value) and can be activated or deactivated.
For the event program the sampling interval and the bottle
filling time have to be defined in hours and minutes (hh:mm).
Program run:
As soon as there is an event signal, the distributor moves to the next empty
bottle (is recorded in the memory as event bottle). The sample extraction is
effected according to the set values as long as the signal is present. If the
signal is active longer than the bottle filling time set, further bottles are filled.
When the signal fades, the distributor moves to the next empty bottle and
resumes the initially started sampling mode (time or flow). All this data is
logged in the info memory.
- PROGRAM LINKAGE
(End of program 1 will start program 2. End of program
2 will start program x. The last program will start
program 1 again or program x = CONTINUOUS
OPERATION)
With this function it is possible to link one or several programs to each other
(e.g. for weekend operation with different programs per day).
Program run:
End of Program 1 can trigger the start of Program 2.
End of Program 2 can trigger the start of Program X.
The last entered program starts Program 1 again or
any other Program X.
In addition, the number of cycles can be set for each program.

______________________________________________________________________________
Page 19
• ABSOLUTE START TIME
By means of an external pulse (e.g. a palm button) a program is
always started at a fixed time (e.g. 8°° h).
The program run time always results from the value set as bottle filling time.
Example: Number of bottles = 12
Bottle fill time = 2 h
Program run time = 24 h
The program is automatically stopped after the entered run time
(here: 24 h) and waits for the next external pulse (e.g. by means of a
palm button).
This program feature ensures that the sampler always stays in the
same time interval (here: 24 hours) and uses the same bottle
assignment, independently of whether the start (external pulse) is
before or after the programmed start time (here: 8.00 h).
• External pulse is triggered before the end of the program run time.
Example: you would like to change the bottles already before the expiry of the program run
time and thus you trigger an external pulse at 6:30 h. Therefore the program stops at 6:30 h
and starts again automatically at 8.00 h.
• External pulse is triggered after the end of the program run time.
Example: you can only go to the sampler after the program run time has expired e.g. 9:45 h.
When you changed the bottles and trigger an external pulse, the programautomatically
calculates on which bottle the distributor has to be placed at the start time, moves to that
bottle and starts sampling into this bottle.
Remark: If the function „ABSOLUTE START TIME“ is activated /deactivated, also
the first programmable input (PIN 40 to X5) is automatically
activated/deactivated!

______________________________________________________________________________
Page 20
- BOTTLE FILLING PAUSE (SÜV program )
Setting range: between 0-10080 min. (7 days).
This function enables a deferred sample extraction
(filling pause) related to the bottles before the next bottle
is filled.
The pause is entered in minutes.
Example:
Sampler with 24-bottle distributor system.
Bottle fill time: 2 hours.
- without programmed bottle filling pause:
A bottle change is made every 2 hours, that means
after 24 hours all the 12 bottles are filled.
- withprogrammed bottle filling pause of 24 hours
(1440 min.):
Bottle 1 is filled for 2 hours. Thereafter there is a bottle filling pause of 24
hours and only then the distributor changes to bottle No. 2.
Thus there is a delayed bottle filling of 24 hours between each of the individual
bottles. The whole program cycle in this example would be: 12 bottles x 26 h =
312 hours (2 hours fill time + 24 hours filling pause).
As a result of this setting, each bottle is filled with a delay of 26 hours per day.
