Using the Definition Tables
Now that the MCA Input Definition has been stored and loaded into the MCA Runtime
Configuration Database, it can be ‘opened’ by the Acquisition and Analysis application to
acquire and analyze data.
The MID Wizard
The MID Wizard helps you set up simple Input Definitions quickly and easily. It allows
you to create a MID definition in a few simple steps and immediately load it into the
runtime database, however, there are some selections through the MID Wizard that are not
accessible.
By default, the MID Wizard does not include a Sample Changer device in an Input
Definition. Only the MID Editor can include the Sample Changer device in an Input
definition. Please refer to the Sample Changer, on page 36, to make a sample changer
selection.
If your Input Definition is more complex than the MID Wizard was designed to handle,
you'll have to use the MID Editor to create your definition. It is covered in detail starting
in the MCA Input Definition (MID) Editor.
Using the MID Wizard
To use the MID Wizard, open the Genie 2000 folder and select the MID Wizard
executable file (MidWiz.exe), or from the Start menu select Programs | GENIE-2000 |
MID Setup Wizard to start the definition process.
Note: At any time, you can click Next to proceed to the next screen, click Back to return
to the previous screen, or click Cancel to exit the wizard. You can also access the
help topic for each screen by clicking on the Help button.
