Dealing with Sluggish Instrument Operation

Over time you might notice that acquisitions seem to be occurring sluggishly. This can occur if the disk is
too full or if someone has accidently deleted the instrument cache file. While the instrument automatically
recreates a missing 4 GB cache file, if the disk is too full when the replacement cache file is created, the
cache file can be fragmented and result in sluggish performance.
If your instrument appears to be performing acquisitions slowly, do the following:
Delete unnecessary files to create free space. After deleting unnecessary files, run a commercial
disk defragmentation program.
If removing unnecessary files and defragging the hard drive does not improve instrument performance,
reinstall the operating system and application software. To do this, back up all your data and files, and
then reinstall the instrument operating system. After reinstalling the operating system, reinstall the
application software.

On/Standby Switch

Use this button to power the instrument on or to shut down (set the instrument to standby).
