Select User Screen
The Select User screen is the opening screen to log in and proceed to set up a run, add new users, or select or
modify an existing user. The screen also serves as a focal point for shutting down the application. Labels A through
F are:
A.
User Settings
: Pressing the User Settings button accesses a list of logged users from which to log in, or
provides the menu to create a new user.
B.
Status of Events
: Pressing the green check mark accesses the Events screen. Here users will find a list of
events, warnings and errors that may have occurred on the instrument while the application was in use. The
green check mark changes to a red exclamation mark or an hour glass to communicate when the instruments’
status changes. For more information, see the Troubleshooting section. The Events log is available from all
views throughout Irys ICS accessing it does not interrupt any work being done in Irys ICS.
C.
Help
: Pressing the question mark accesses the online user guide.
D.
Exit
: Pressing this button returns user to the Select User screen. While on the Select User screen, pressing
this button safely shuts down the Irys ICS application.

returns the user to the previous screen.

previous user neglected to clean after their run (not recommended).

proceed to the User Settings button to create a new user profile.
