9. Basic Operation
This section covers the power-up, power-down,
and basic operation procedures for the VÅN-
TEC-1 detector system and gives an overview
of system operation and collection of data.
Operation details for XRD COMMANDER are
described in the document M88-Exx060.
The Stop button will not turn off the three AC
outlets (X601) that are located on the mains
distribution panel! Devices connected to these
AC outlets can only be switched off by the
internal automatic circuit breaker labelled F600
or the external power switch that is installed on
the user’s side close to the diffractometer.
The VÅNTEC-1 controller requires one hour to
warm up for optimal results.
9.1 VÅNTEC-1 Power-Up Procedure
1. Press the I/O button on the front of the VÅN-
TEC-1 controller to apply mains power. The
I/O button illuminates when power is
present. If the I/O button doesn’t illuminate,
ensure that there is power applied to the D8
system by pressing the Power ON ( I ) but-
ton located on the right side column of the
D8 enclosure.
2. Turn on the high voltage for the detector by
pressing the high voltage enable button on
the front of the VÅNTEC-1 controller. If
power and communications for the control-
ler are properly applied, there should be no
warning LED illuminated. The system LED
will flash, indicating communication and
control. The high voltage LED will be yellow
and illuminated. The low voltage LED will be
green and illuminated.
