1. Click on “Analyzer PRO Setup/Diagnostic”, then “Run
Performance Test”.
2. Vision displays the Instrument
Configuration box. This information
is used to set up the Diagnostic
Database entries for this instrument.
If correct, click on “OK”.
This box is shown upon each initial
connection, and is not shown on
subsequent diagnostic tests, as long
as the instrument has remained
connected to Vision.
3. Vision asks which fiber should be used for the
test. The test defaults to the Sample fiber. Do not
click yet.
4. When testing the sample channel, always place
the R80 standard on the sample window. Click
on “Sample” to start the test.
Because of the large spot size, it is not necessary
to orient the sample in any particular direction.
Simply center it over the window as shown.
NOTE: We advise removing the standards when
not in use. The intense light beam can warm the
standards considerably, which will change their
photometric response. Please place the standards
on the window only for current testing, and
remove them promptly when finished.
