The DECADE controller
Introduction
The DECADE has been designed for maximum functionality and ease of use.
The control of ECD parameters is such that without reading this chapter, it
should be possible to operate the detector. This chapter is intended as a
reference guide in case questions arise during operation.
The information shown in the numerous screens is presented in alphabetical
order. For each item an explanation is given, together with the item’s nature
and the screen(s) of appearance. The nature of an item can be:
•
Control: parameters with a cursor box (‘
’) can be attained via cursor
buttons and changed by the ‘+’ and ‘-’ button.
•
Status: without a cursor box a parameter reflects the current status.
•
Functions: parameters in CAPITALS are commands accessible via
function buttons.
Fig. 3. DECADE keyboard. The cursor is on ‘Range’ which allows changes
using the ‘-’ and ‘+’ button.
The ENTER button (‘#’) is only used to accept changes in cell potential. In the
top right corner of each screen the name of the present screen is displayed. If
available, the most left function button displays a previous screen, and the
most right one the next screen.
