If initialization finishes successfully, a message appears prompting you to execute
wavelength calibration and alignment adjustment.
The contents of the message are as follows.
For this instrument to meet its specification, a Wavelength Calibration and an
Optical Alignment Adjustment must be performed. Please perform these operations
according to the guidelines below.
Wavelength
Calibration
Perform wavelength calibration before starting measurement (a warm-up of one
hour is also required prior to measurement). Unless the Wavelength Calibration
is carried out, the wavelength accuracy of the instrument cannot be guaranteed.
Alignment Adjustment
Always perform alignment adjustment the first time you use the instrument, if
the instrument was vibrated when being moved, or if the temperature in the
operating environment has changed. Perform the alignment adjustment after
a one-hour warm-up. See section 3.6 for details on the alignment adjustment
operation, and 3.7 for wavelength calibration.
Note
• The instrument “remembers” measurement conditions, selected soft keys, waveforms being
displayed, and other information. When the power is turned ON, the state of the instrument
prior to the last shut down is restored. When the power is turned ON for the first time, the
instrument starts up in the factory default state.
• If an abnormality occurs in memory or another part of the instrument part way through the
initialization process, “STEP @/9” is displayed and the process stops (where @ is a number
from 1 to 9). If this happens, the instrument requires servicing. Please contact your nearest
dealership or sales representative immediately.
Explanation
Screen when the instrument was not shut down
If the shutdown procedure was not performed after the previous session, the following
message appears after start up.
Failure to properly shut down the instrument can result in damage to the monochromator.
When turning OFF the power, always perform the shut down procedure.
