3.2. Running the FG5
The FG5 begins observations when the user selects Process | Go in the “g”
program.. Consult the FG5 Software Manual for instructions on operating the
program. The software manual also includes information about software
features, gravity corrections, output displays, and input/output file descriptions,
as well as data analysis and trouble shooting.
3.2.1.SYSTEM CONTROLLER
1. Make sure the time and date are correctly set to UT. Do this by double-
clicking on the clock in the Windows© Task Bar.
3. Enter the site information into Process | Setup | Information window in “g”.
4. If automatic laser peak detection is desired, check the 1f signals with a volt
meter and enter the information in to Process | Setup | System | Laser
5. Enter the desired acquisition parameters into Process | Setup | Acquisition
6. Enter the desired environmental/system corrections into Process | Setup |
Control.
NOTE: Make sure the laser is warm and the meter select switch of the WEO
Model 100 laser controller is set to 1f (see WEO manual). After reading the 1f
signals, be sure to reconnect the BNC cable between the “output” connector on
the laser controller and the Channel 3 connector on the patch panel.

7. Make sure the cart is resting at its bottom position, and the green
RESET/INIT light is on. Set the mode switch to DROP. Press RESET/INIT
