The instrument status light in the bottom toolbar will indicate
when the instrument vacuum is at the correct level and filament
emission is achieved. The instrument status light is an
acknowledgeable alarm indicator. It should be GREEN,
indicating a "go" condition, where all the measured instrument
parameters are within their configured alarm thresholds. If any
measured instrument parameter is outside its configured alarm
threshold, then the instrument status light will be shown in RED,
indicating a "no-go" condition. If the instrument status light is
shown UNCOLOURED (GREY), either a complete cycle of
instrument parameter measurements has not been completed or
the host PC has not connected to the instrument CPU.
If the pressure is not below the vacuum gauge trip level then the
emission will not switch on and the ion energy will remain at
zero.
Note that a single mouse click on the Instrument Status toolbar
button will open the instrument status window
