4 Preparing the
System for Use
4.1 Power up Procedure
Turn on the components of the M-2000 system in the following order.
1. Turn on the lamp power supply button on the M-2000 module. Wait 3
seconds and press the ignition button (not applicable on M-2000V and VI
systems). Hold a piece of paper in front of the Light Source unit to check
that the lamp is on. Light may also be visible through a vent on top of the
light source. If this intensity is weak, the lamp inside the lamp housing
may need to be adjusted or replaced. This information can be found in
Chapter 10 Scheduled Maintenance.
Note: Allow the lamp to warm up for at least 15 minutes.
2. Turn on the EC box.
3. Turn on the monitor and the computer (will turn on automatically with
power on a rack mount table system).
4. Double click the CompleteEASE program icon (or highlight the title bar
under the CompleteEASE program icon and press <enter>). A status
message will appear on the screen showing the initialization progress.
5. After the hardware is successfully initialized, the software will display
“Waiting to Acquire Data” in the Hardware Status panel. If the hardware
initialization is not successful, note the error messages that are displayed,
and consult Chapter 12 Troubleshooting.
