Micro-Ion Filament Operation Modes
Mode
Description
Automatic
• Filament logic operates filament 1 each time the Micro-Ion gauge turns ON
• If filament 1 becomes inoperable, the Micro-Ion gauge switches to filament 2
Alternating (default for Micro-Ion gauge
with yttria-coated iridium filaments)
• Filament logic alternates between filament 1 and filament 2 each time the
Micro-Ion gauge turns ON
• If a filament becomes inoperable, the module switches to the operable filament
• Default mode for Micro-Ion gauge with yttria-coated iridium filaments
Manual (default for Micro-Ion gauge
with tungsten filaments)
• Filament logic operates filament 1 each time the Micro-Ion gauge turns ON
• If filament 1 becomes inoperable, press the gauge button to turn filament 2 ON
(gauge LED will flash red)
• After the gauge button has been pressed, filament 2 turns ON
• Default mode for Micro-Ion gauge with tungsten filaments
