Verifying Column Parameters
Remember that commands can be upper or lower case, and that they must always be
followed by <enter>.
To verify that the column parameters have been correctly loaded into the FTC, type
SC<enter> (for “show column”). The column parameters should match those on the data
sheet supplied with the column.
: sc
Column id/sn:
  12345 Column serial number
Max. temperature:
  325 Maximum column temperature in °C
Calibration data:
Temp. Res.
  40.00 6.30000 The three resistance vs. temperature
  183.00 11.74200 calibration points in °C and ohms

Verifying Control
1. ReadthecolumntemperaturebytypingRT<enter> (for “read temperature”). The
column temperature should be appropriate for its environment. If the temperature
response is not reasonable, recheck the column parameters for errors.
2. CheckthecolumnresistancebytypingRR<enter> (for “read resistance”).
