The Login ZEN dialog allows you to boot the Software
in different modes. If the Boot Status is closed, the
options are Start System and Image Processing.
A third option, Offline/Demo, becomes available
(Fig. 9), once the Boot Status field is expanded by
pressing the expansion symbol (triangle).
You can collapse the field by pressing the expansion
symbol again. Select:
− Start System for system control, data / image
acquisition / recording and analysis. The whole
microscope system will be initialized. The progress of
the boot process will be displayed by the blue time
tab. During booting the status of the system will be
displayed in the Boot Status window and the single
components will be listed which have been or are
currently being checked during the boot process
(Fig. 9).
− Offline/Demo for data analysis and simulation.
Offline/Demo reads the active hardware database
and simulates the respective hardware. This button is
only available after opening the Boot Status display
by clicking the little arrow left of the text "Boot
Status" This option should be chosen when working
at an offline station and if you want to test
functionalities of the system. The progress of the boot
process will be displayed by the blue time tab. The
single components will be listed, which are checked
during the boot process. Note that the software will
not control the hardware in this mode.
− Image Processing for data analysis only. This mode
ignores the hardware and activates only data handling
and image processing functionality to analyze stored
images. Note that only those software tools will be
displayed that are needed for processing and analysis
of the data. No hardware control tools will be shown.
− Cancel to abort the booting process and to leave the
dialog. Note that the Cancel button will appear in the
place of the Image processing button only if Start
System or Offline/Demo was selected (Fig. 10).
− You can leave the software by choosing the File
menu from the main tool area and selecting Exit.
− You can select a database before booting, if you wish
to change the current one. To change the database
open the Hardware
expansion field (Fig. 11). The expansion field displays
the currently loaded database and its location on the
hard disc.
