Page 4: Warning Notices
1.1 Control of Simulators STS aims to make simulators that are indistinguishable from real instruments, so that the person being instructed experiences the best possible training. A consequence of this is that there is a possibility that the simulator could be mistaken for a real instrument, and then used for a real monitoring task, when, obviously, no readings would result. -
Page 5: Intrinsic Safety
In particular, STS systems allow the trainee to master the skill of probe manipulation and also to develop an understanding of the ease with which contamination spreads. -
Page 6: Liquid Source Ls1
The discipline of good probe manipulation near surfaces is thus instilled by the system, resulting in good practice by the trainee when set to work. User Manual STS Smart Interface for Ludlum 3/12 and HP260 Probe 2023 Page 6 of 17... -
Page 7: Solid Source Ss4
The useful training period by SS4 is about 2 hours for a 0.3g pile of material, after which the signal will decrease, reaching zero cps after about 4 hours. An inert powder will remain after the signal has completely disappeared. User Manual STS Smart Interface for Ludlum 3/12 and HP260 Probe 2023 Page 7 of 17... -

– These are different style connectors and will not reliably mate the other way round. The STS probe should then be connector to the 5 pin connector on the top of the interface box. The STS circuit is automatically switched on from the HV line in the Ludlum, so turning on the Ludlum will start the STS circuit and the probe detector and fan will initialise (please wait approx. -
