Sensor Type Selection

Before using the software, you must select the appropriate sensor type from the three buttons in the
Sensor field on the right side of the screen. Choose FOXY, HIOXY, or FOSPOR.

APD Voltage

APD voltage is the voltage applied to the APD detector, which determines the detector’s sensitivity
towards converting photons to electrical signal. This can be manually adjusted for firmware versions
below 4.0 if the signal level of the sensor appears to be low. For firmware versions 4.00 or above, this
parameter is set at the factory and cannot be changed.

Procedure

To manually adjust the signal level:

1. From the Basic View screen, select View | Advanced Settings to display the Advanced View

screen. Make sure that the Setup tab (lower right corner) is selected.
