4.3.3 Method specifications of the method CALCRV.mth
In this section the 5 dialog pages of the group "Method Specifications" associated
with the loaded method CALCRV.mth will be explained in detail. If you are interested
only in a rapid lead measurement, you can proceed directly to section 4.3.4.

• The following is a brief explanation of the main program sequence:
Line 1 Addition of sample: 10 mL
Line 2 ……13 Loop for recording the calibration curve (4 calibration solutions)
Line 3 Addition of calibration solution to measuring vessel: 10 mL
Line 4 Addition of acetate buffer to measuring vessel: 1 mL
Line 5 …… 6 Purging and stirring of the analysis solution for 3 min
Line 7 Switching off the purging
Line 8 ……11 Loop for double replication of the segment
Line 9 Stirring of the analysis solution for 5 s
Line 10 Call-up of the segment DPASV for lead determination
Line 12 Resetting of the volume bookkeeping to 0 for solution change
(new calibration solution)
Line 14 End of main program
• The sequence of the main program depends on the selected mode for
the program run Run mode on the "MONITORING" page:
− In the program run mode calibration, all instructions marked with
D are ignored. 4 calibration solutions are measured in turn and the
coefficients of the calibration curve determined.
− In the program run mode determination, on the other hand, all in-
structions marked with C are ignored. The sample is measured and
its mass concentration then determined using the calibration curve
recorded earlier.
