SYSTEM SHUT-DOWN
The Atomlab 950 system is now fully set up and ready for operation. Before it can be moved, however, it
must be shut down using the following procedure.
1.
At the Windows Desktop screen, which should now be displayed, move the trackball pointer over
the “Atomlab950” icon and double-click the mouse. The About Atomlab950 screen should now be
displayed. A calibration status box is located on the right side of this screen.
2.
Look below the version number of the Atomlab software (under the Biodex Address on the left side
of the screen) and check the detector status. If the cables are connected properly at this point, there
will be a message reading "Connected To MCA."
NOTE: If the message reads "Device Not Found," reconnect the cables leading to the MCA and check all other
connections. If the system will not connect to the MCA, click on <No> and then click on <Yes> to advance to
Simulation mode. You can then exit Simulation mode by clicking on <File> at the top of the screen, selecting
<System Setup>, and then clicking on <Simulation Mode> to remove the check mark. See "System Software
Set Up."
3.
If the detector status is okay, click on <OK> to advance to the MCA Operation screen.
4.
Move the pointer over the <X> at the top right corner of the screen and click the left trackball button
to exit. The Windows Desktop should now be displayed.
5.
Select <Start>. Now click on <Shut Down> and then <OK>. The system will now take several
seconds to shut down the computer. When finished, a message will appear on the screen noting that
it is safe to turn the system OFF. Turn the power strip off at this time. You can now unplug the
system and move it to the location where it will be used.
NOTE: The push handle can be used as a wire wrap to hold the uptake stand power cord during transport.
GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
As required, wipe down the exterior of the unit using a soft rag slightly dampened with alcohol.
POWER-UP AND SELF-TEST
(See Figures 2-3 and 2-4.)
At this point, your Atomlab 950 Medical Spectrometer should be fully ready for operation. It is
recommended that the system be turned ON at least one hour before use or, if possible, left on at all
times. This will provide optimum performance and will not effect the longevity of any part or component
except the monitor, which should be turned OFF if the Atomlab 950 will not be used for a prolonged
period of time.
To Power-Up And Run The Self-Test
Turn on all components, including the printer. The system may immediately advance to the Atomlab 950
program. If not, double-click on the <Atomlab950> icon from the system desktop. Once the Atomlab 950
program is activated, the system immediately performs a self-test. The About Atomlab 950 screen is then
displayed.
NOTE: If the system is in Simulation Mode, see System Setup later in this manual to return to normal operating
mode.
