, which houses a high-accuracy, 4-channel infrared gas analyzer (IRGA).

Safety Precautions

• M1 (Measurement): Start/stop logging. Manual tip: Always wait for the "Stable" indicator (a small dot near the CO₂ value) before pressing M1.
• M2 (Parameters): Set light intensity (PAR), leaf temperature, and CO₂ concentration.
• M3 (System): Zero the IRGA, set altitude correction, adjust flow rate.
• M4 (File): Save/load experiments.

• Temperature Response (A/T) Curves: The manual details how to use the Peltier cooling plate to drop leaf temperature from 40°C to 10°C. Warning: Do not exceed 2°C/min to avoid shocking the leaf.
• Light Response (A/Q) Curves: The manual provides the standard light levels (0 to 2000 µmol m⁻² s⁻¹) and explains how to program a "Light Ramp" versus "Stepped" curve.
• Dual Cuvette Mode: For measuring gs (stomatal conductance) on one leaf and photosynthesis on another. This requires specific T-piece fittings detailed only in the manual’s accessories section.
