10 FISCHERSCOPE ® X-RAY
Safety Information
1.6 Requirements for the Operating Personnel
1.6.1 Operators with Introductory Training
Operators with introductory training can work with the instrument efficiently and safely.
For this purpose, the instrument is prepared such that all settings for the measuring application are
made by trained specialists. Then, the software’s scope of functions is restricted such that only the
functions required for carrying out the measuring application remain accessible (
Short menu ). This
provides operators with introductory training with a clear workspace and the instrument is protect-
ed from interventions and changes in the software.
Operators with introductory training should have the following knowledge:

Fundamental knowledge about the use of Microsoft ® Windows ®

Knowledge of the safety information described in this manual
Operators with introductory training must be instructed in the proper use by a person that has the
requisite qualifications.
1.6.2 Trained Specialists
Trained specialists can utilize the full bandwidth of the technical capabilities of the
FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY.
In addition, trained specialists have the following knowledge:

Knowledge of the physical principle of x-ray fluorescence and of the functional principle of the
FISCHERSCOPE X-RAY instrument
The aforementioned physics knowledge is important for defining the measuring application and for
other settings. Only the most important facts are explained in this Operators Manual. This does not
replace detailed training.
The practice-oriented seminars of FISCHER are a worthwhile opportunity for obtaining the required
knowledge. Several times a year, user seminars that provide insights into the physical fundamentals
of x-ray fluorescence and prepare users for their work with the measuring instruments are conduct-
ed at various locations.
Seminar dates can be found on our website www.helmut-fischer.com.
