In case the stage moves against something, the crash protection of the
instrument gives a short beep, the stage stops immediately and the status
signal changes to red. This status can be changed with a Z-reference run.
6.2.3 Project area
Project is the name of a special screen area or a data structure that can file all objects (spectra,
images, data lists...) generated during M4 TORNADO work sessions.
The hierarchical tree structure of a project facilitates the grouping of data belonging together, e.g.
spectra, result lists and associated sample images. The tree structure is organized automatically
in the order objects are sent to the project via the Import/Export menus of the specific
workspaces.
Objects saved in a project can be retained including all primary data, relevant settings and
attached information. This allows the combination of different data types (spectra, images,
element distributions, results, element lists, etc.) in one file.
Some of the M4 TORNADO objects can only be saved by embedding them in project files.
