Chapter 1. Pre star tup checking points
1. Hardware
Note: From serial number R**********S ,You must move interface board ROM write protection switch
direction to write enable direction inside of instrument for the following case
 License code registration
 Channel expansion setting
 USB firmware upgrade
After the above modification, you must set ROM switch as write protect direction
 Don’t place EMI producing equipment near this instrument (such as radio, vibration etc.).
 The cell cable itself can work as antenna. (It can receive EMI noise). Never allow the cell cable to
cross or come in contact with any power line cable.
 If the result data is noisy, it may be necessary to make the cell cable as short as possible. (As this
reduces induced noise.)
 The counter electrode is dangerous. Do NOT touch this electrode.
 Do not place any obstacle preventing air flow at bottom or the side of the unit
 ZIVE SP2 should only be used with the supplied cell cable. If you use a custom made cell cable, it
is likely to create noisy data.
2. Calibration
 Calibration of the ZIVE SP2 instrument is accomplished by using independent SM toolkit software..
 Calibration will be done automatically.
 During calibration the cell cable must be disconnected from the instrument
 Never turn off the power during calibration...
 During Calibration, Do not locate EMI noise sources(radio, frequency generator, vibrator etc.) near
the ZIVE SP2.
