Before Using the Imaging System
Before you use the Spotlight 400 series imaging system you must:
•
Make sure the spectrometer is switched on;
•
Switch the stage controller and imager on;
• Cool the detector (if using an MCT detector; the InGaAs detector does not require
cooling);
• Set up the imager;
•
Focus the imager.
We recommend that you use these procedures at the beginning of the day's work, or any
time the imaging system has not been in use or has been used by others.
