PREPARATION FOR IMAGING

Use the following procedure when starting operating of the camera.
(1) Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 7-1 before operating of the
camera.
(2) Switch the AC adaptor's power switch to ON.
(3) After turning the power switch on, wait approximately 30 minutes for the
temperature to stabilize; this completes preparation for imaging.

END OF IMAGING

(1) End imaging or transmission of image data with the control software when
imaging is finished.
(2) Turn off the power to the peripheral equipment.
Note
Start the measurement after the inside cooling temperature becomes stable
because the Electron Multiplier gain depends on the temperature.

Concerning the Beep;
The abnormal high temperature inside the camera makes the beep. Then
turn off the power supply immediately. And turn on the power supply after
removing the factors, which increase the temperature.
