DX4040 INSTRUCTION AND OPERATING MANUAL (E2.04)
•
If the background taken by Calcmet Lite (and saved in the DX4040) fulfils the
previous criteria’s, then Calcmet Lite saves the background.
•
If not, the background is saved and a window will be displayed after background
measurement in order to notify the user that the background is low.
- Timer:
The Timer parameter defines the time (in ms) taken by the DX4040 to analyze a
spectrum. Depending of the application size, the analysis can take hundreds of
milliseconds to a couple of seconds before sending the results to Calcmet Lite. This
parameter needs to be fine-tuned depending on the application loaded to the DX4040.
If the Timer is set too low and the analysis takes more time than what is defined by the
timer parameter, the results will not be displayed on the PDA. Instead, if the Timer is
set too high, you might have some communication issues especially when the PDA is
far (more than 5 meters) of the DX4040.
