Vulcan Series
The measurement time is long and I hear the instrument motor run repeatedly
○
The “pre-burn” feature is activated. Switch it off from the main pull down menu.
I don’t see results and ‘Measurement interrupted’ message appears on the screen. The instrument
can’t take a good measurement.
○
This can happen when trying to take a measurement from a very small component, thin wire
or uneven surface. Move the analyzer and take the measurement from another location.
○
Check that both the proximity sensor and measurement windows are covered with the
sample. If you can’t cover the proximity sensor, you can temporarily disable it from the
“Settings” menu (supervisor mode).
I don’t have laser safety goggles, can I use sunglasses instead?
○
No. The Vulcan series instruments emit infrared laser that is invisible to the eye. Only
designated safety goggles with OD6+ (1064nm), 1064 R LB6 D LB6 rating provides
protection against the direct and reflected beams.
The screen brightness changes constantly. Is the screen broken?
○
The Vulcan series has a built in ambient light sensor and automatic screen brightness
adjustment. This behavior is normal. You can also set the brightness level manually from the
settings menu.
