• If the background file is accepted, the instrument is now
configured for deployment, however, the sampling
program running.
• You MUST start the sampling program in order to collect
data. If you do not do that, the LISST will never start
sampling or react to the start and stop conditions.
• Note that starting the sampling program is not necessarily
the same as starting sampling (unless you have a delay start
of 0 minutes set as your start condition). For example, if you
have selected the mechanical switch as the start condition,
the instrument will only react to the swtich after the sampling
program has been started. Only then will actual sampling
begin.
• For convience, you can select to open the terminal window
or zero the depth sensor before starting the sampling
program. We recommend selecting to open the terminal
window, so you can confirm the sampling program has been
started.
• If you select the Cancel button, the message below appears,
informing you how you can start the instrument.
