STEP BY STEP MULTI GAUGE CONTROLLER
4 STEP BY STEP
This chapter descries the coniguration procedure and irst start-up of the MG15 device.
4.1 QUICK START
1. Install the device on the vacuum system and make all the necessary connections - see chapter
2.5.
2. Switch on the device - see chapter 3.1.
3. Conigure the measuring channels - select appropriate gauges and set their parameters - see
sub-chapter 3.6.1.
4. Set the threshold pressure values (setpoints) for both channels - see chapter 3.4.1.1.
5. In the event of working with gases other than nitrogen or air, enter the appropriate correction
factor - see chapter 3.6.4.
6. If necessary, degas the ion gauges - see chapter 3.6.2.
7. Choose the automatic or manual emission control type for each channel - see chapter 3.6.3.
8. Check whether the threshold pressure values (setpoints) have been achieved and if the man-
ual emission control has been selected, press the Emis. button, to activate the ion gauge emis-
sion. Achieving the set setpoints is signalled by the green Setpoints diodes on the main win-
dow, and if emission is active the Emis. text appears - see chapter 3.4.1.
4.2 COMMUNICATION INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
The following procedure let to conigure the RS232 module to work with 19200bps baud rate:
1. Press the Menu button.
2. Click on the Setup menu.
3. In the Setup menu select the Device Settings -> Communication -> Interface 2.
4. From the Interface list select the RS232.
5. Click on Baud Rate.
6. In the displayed list, select the appropriate transmission speed, e.g. 19200bps.
