The CI-154 user interface
The CI-154 uses a color touch screen display that allows the user to control the
operation of the CI-154 through
soft
keys on the display’s touch screen. The unit is
turned on by a momentary switch to the right of the display. There will be a slight
pause—about four seconds— before the opening screen appears.
The opening screen shows the last date the instrument was calibrated, and the next
calibration due date. It also displays the serial number of the instrument and the
currently installed firmware version. After a couple of seconds, the opening screen is
replaced by the main data screen (or the log-in screen if the security feature is
enabled).
The main screen displays data being collected by the particle counter while the unit
is in sample mode. Along the bottom of the screen are a series of soft keys that
allow the user to start sampling, assign an ID to the sample, print a report of the
samples, load pre-configured sampling settings, or enter settings.
Other menus may be accessed from these keys to further control the operation of
the CI-154. Those familiar with computers and particle counters may find that they
can readily figure out how to operate the CI-154 without consulting the manual.
Many of the keys change from green to yellow, or from yellow to green when
pressed. A feature is enabled or selected when the key is green, and disabled or
deselected when the key is yellow.
Touch screen displays offer greater convenience than membrane keys, but they do
have their own peculiarities. If pressed slowly and gently, the wrong key may
respond occasionally. To avoid this, key presses should be firm and without
hesitation.
CAUTION:
Do not use a pen, stylus, or other hard object
to press keys. This could damage the touch
screen, and is not covered by the warranty.
In addition to the soft keys along the bottom of the main screen, there is a colored
box displaying the status of the sample. This box is normally green with the word
OK
in the center of the box. If alarms are set, the box will turn red in response to an
alarm violation, and the channel that violated the alarm level will be highlighted in
red. Pressing this status box will reset the alarm for the current sample. The box will
also turn red if low laser power or low battery is detected.
NOTE:
Any samples taken when low laser power is detected
will not be printed or stored in memory.
Just below the status box is the word NETWORK with 2 small rectangles beneath it.
The left side rectangle will change from black to yellow if an Ethernet cable is
plugged into the Ethernet receptacle on the rear panel
and
a successful link is
established. The right hand rectangle will flash green when there is network traffic,
not necessarily with the unit itself.
