CHAPTER 3
OPERATION
3.0 GENERAL
This chapter covers seven areas: MPS Front Panel (Paragraph 3.1), Power Up (Paragraph 3.2), Setting
Current on an MPS with Manual PSH Control (Paragraph 3.3), Setting Current with Automatic PSH Control
(Paragraph 3.4), Instrument Setup Screens (Paragraph 3.5), Function Menus (Paragraph 3.6), and an
Automatic Persistence Control Example (Paragraph 3.7).
Setup the MPS software with the MPS output terminals shorted together as in section 3.2. This ensures that
while the user learns MPS operation, an inadvertent keystroke causes no damage to the magnet.
3.1 THE MPS FRONT PANEL
Figure 3.1 below shows the MPS Front Panel. The up or down Display Cursor Control keys move the line
indicator to the line containing a value to be changed. Use either the Data Entry Keypad to enter the desired
value or the up or down Numeric Entry keys to increment or decrement the value. The Enter key accepts the
update, while the Esc key discards the change and returns to the prior value. Move the cursor to a particular
digit with the right and left Display Cursor Control keys and change it with the Numeric Entry keys.
