Section 1: VP-ITC – General Information
General
How To Use This Manual
This manual describes the VP-ITC; its setup, operation and maintenance.
Once the instrument is setup (as described in Section 1), a new user may wish to go directly to
Section 4 and run through the experimental tutorials for a “hands on” approach to learning about
the instrument and software. The user should then refer back to sections 2 and 3 for detailed
descriptions toward a better understanding of the intricacies of the instrument. Section 5 contains
important information for maintaining the instrument performance. Section 6 provides tips for
optimizing the performance and troubleshooting techniques for commonly encountered problems.
Section 7 provides description of some more advanced features.
Much of this manual provides descriptions of the VP-ITC instrument and software. Bullets or
step numbers are typically used when the user is requested to perform an operation.
