2-6 Introduction to Your LabScan XE System 01/03
1. The lamp stays on between readings.
2. The lamp remains off after each reading.
Select the desired mode of operation using the retroviewer button as follows:
1. Lamp Stay On Mode: Press and hold the retroviewer button until the In-Progress light stops
flashing. To turn the lamp off, press and immediately release the retroviewer button three times
in a row.
2. Lamp Stay Off Mode: Press and immediately release the retroviewer button. The lamp will
automatically turn itself off when you take a reading.
Note: In order to prevent heat build-up, the retroviewer lamps will turn off automatically after four
minutes of inactivity, regardless of selected mode.
Note: When the retroviewer mirror is moving to a new position, there is a slight delay and the “In
progress” light flashes.
Sample Clamp
A spring-loaded sample clamp is available to hold samples securely at the sample port when you are
measuring with the instrument in the port-forward configuration. To install the clamp, insert the
horizontal clamp arm support into the mounting port in the instrument case until it stops. The clamp is
easily positioned and removed using the front button to raise and lower the clamp arm and the back
button to move the clamp arm in and out. Two clamp disks are provided as sample backings: white for
most measurements and black for when opacity measurements are being made. To install a different
disk, simply pop out the current disk and insert the second disk. The disks are held in place on the clamp
using magnets.
Note: If the sample clamp was ordered separately from the instrument, then your mounting port
may be covered. You will need to pry up the plastic cover using a flat-head screwdriver in order to
access the mounting port.
