10.2 Run Measurement
Instructions for starting/stopping a run
A run can be started any time on the
Measurement
menu by pushing
the
Start
button. The measurement parameters defined last will be used
(
Measurement
menu).
If you have
edited measurement parameters
during a continuous
measurement or a measurement over a limited time, these changes are
not taken into account. They are used only when the changed parame-
ters (on all levels up to the measurement parameters) are loaded again
and the measurement is started again.
Example:
Changed energy window of nuclide XY.
First, open the method in which this nuclide is used and select the
nuclide XY again. Only then the nuclide with the new parameters will
be taken over into the method.
Select the
Measurement
menu and there select the method again
for the respective run. Only then the
changed
method will be loaded.
Now go to the
Measurement
menu and start the measurement.
Only then the new parameters will be used, in this case the new
energy window of the nuclide.
This also means that in all methods which use the nuclide XY, the nu-
clide has to be loaded again so that the new nuclide parameters will be
used.
A run over a defined time period is automatically terminated as soon as
this time period is over. You may also stop a run any time by pushing
the
Stop
button.
At the end of the run, the measured data are stored and are available
for printout or for data transfer.
The data may also be transferred online to the PC and displayed on the
screen, e.g. using the
RadioStar
software and processed further.
At the end of the run, the device goes to the continuous measurement
mode and shows the measured results on the display. In addition, they
are output as analog signals to the analog output.
