Changing Detector Connections on the Scan Head and Router When Using HyD-RLD
24.2.3 Using HyD-RLD
If you would like to use HyD RLD, you have to connect the detector's image signal cable and
the SMD signal cable with the scan head and router. Proceed as follows:
1. Close the LAS AF software.
2. Switch the system, including the detectors, off.
3. Connect the HyD RLD image signal cable (
Figure 193
) to the scan head's APD printed
circuit board ( Figure 190 ).
4. Connect the HyD RLD SMD signal cable (
Figure 194
) to the PHR 800 router's CFD inputs.
5. Connect the MP laser's synchronization cable with Channel 0 of the PicoHarp 300
counting unit (
Figure 197
). The connection between Channel 1 and the PHR 800 router
should remain in existence.
6. Switch the system, including the detectors, on.
7. Start the LAS AF software and select the MP hardware tree on HyD RLD FLIM .
The following figures show the hardware components with the relevant connections:
