Step 21:
Opening
RealTime
Session
The LISST-SOP software also supports the ability to acquire data,
process it, and display it in Real-time. The Real-time display of the
processed data is very similar to the display of processed data.
The instrument can be configured for a Real-Time session before
data is collected but it is no longer required. The current setting for
Measurements per Average is used when acquiring the sample to
display. The recommend value for the Measurements per Average
is 10. Higher values can be used but the updating of the display
will be reduced. The Start and Stop conditions will not be used and
therefore their settings are not relevant.
NOTE: For extended Real-Time sessions it is recommended to use
external power. The batteries will be used up fairly quickly during a
Real Time session.
When exiting the Real-Time session the power should
automatically shut off. Pressing the Stop button on the toolbar or
the Terminal window will turn off the power. Pressing these buttons
when the instrument is already off will have no ill effects.
To open the Real-Time session, choose Open Real-Time Session
from the File menu or press the button. Choose a background
file to use when processing the data. Choose an output PSD file.
A display very similar to the View Processed datafile will be
displayed.
