Manual control of the sample stage
CAUTION
The user must ensure that the stage is clear of obstacles throughout the entire working
region (154 mm x 154 mm) before homing starts. Improperly placed samples could cause
permanent damage to the sample and/or dewar. The Tristan warranty does not cover
resulting damage.
The
HALT
button will immediately terminate movement. The
HOME
button will force the
stage to home; this is theoretically unnecessary, but this utility is provided in the event of a
hardware error.
4.5 SQUID PARAMETERS
The
SQUID
tab controls the iMAG settings. Tristan strongly recommends making
adjustments to the iMAG by using these controls rather than the physical front panel of the
instrument. Changes made from the physical front panel may not be registered in the
software, and thus the data displays and files would be inaccurate. This is of special
concern with the gain setting.
The data output of the iMAG can be viewed in the
Raw Data
tab. This is especially useful
during a manual tune of the iMAG.
