8 minispec.exe Software for
Diagnostic and Service Purposes
The software minispec.exe described in this chapter is typically not used by mq20 Toothpaste
Analyzer users. For these users the software minispec.exe is mostly applied only for
diagnostic and service purposes. Nevertheless a description of this software is provided here.
8.1 Configuration of minispec.exe
8.1.1 Wake-up State of the minispec.exe Software
When the software starts, a general dialog is displayed concerning the software version and
the copyright. Then a Welcome Box opens and displays information about the configuration
of the system. The wake-up configuration is the configuration used with your last
minispec session. To continue with the same settings and start the minispec software click
OK. If you want to change the settings refer to the next section, Configuration of the
Software, the Welcome Box [}47].
As already mentioned the standard software of mq20 Toothpaste Analyzer is the minispec
Plus software. Corresponding manuals for this software are also available on the minispec
CD/memory stick (for a list see Introduction [}23]).
8.1.2 Configuration of the Software, the Welcome Box
The configuration of the system (i.e. the connected minispec, the selected applications, the
analyzer type, and the calibration permission) can be inspected and edited via the Welcome
Box. The Welcome Box can also be user configured. Users can control whether or not this
box will be opened on program start. This is done by selecting or deselecting the entry
Welcome Box in the pull-down menu View (see also The View Menu [} 65]). Deselecting
the item Display this Window on Startup will also turn off the Welcome Box when the box
appears on program start.
