Transpector XPR 3+ Operating Manual
1.16.7  Initial Start-up Procedure
Once the Transpector XPR 3+ sensor, electronics, valve and Pirani are installed, 
the valve should be opened to allow Transpector XPR 3+ to obtain high vacuum. It 
is strongly recommended that Transpector XPR 3+ be kept under high vacuum 
conditions for at least eight hours before the filament is turned on. It is also strongly 
recommended that Transpector XPR 3+ be baked out with the supplied heating 
jacket (which operates at 150 °C), for a period of at least eight hours. This eight 
hour minimum bakeout reduces residual water vapor levels that may be higher due 
to local surface outgassing effects. These recommendations should be followed 
whenever the Transpector XPR 3+ sensor is exposed to atmosphere for long 
periods of time and will serve to increase sensor life.
1.16.8  Installing Ethernet Communications
Communication cables are required to connect Transpector XPR 3+ to the 
computer. Ethernet communication is the default communication method for 
Transpector XPR 3+. Communication cables are required to connect Ethernet 
communication uses standard RJ45, Cat5e Ethernet cables. To use Ethernet 
communications, attach the supplied Cat5e Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the 
back of the Transpector XPR 3+ electronics module. (See Figure 1-20.)
For networking information, see section 2.2.
