C. User-Defined UV Energy Exposure Setting:
Sometimes it may be necessary for you to set your own standards for exposure. This is
easily accomplished as follows:
Push the ENERGY on the tactile touch pad then set your energy exposure requirements by
pushing the numbers on the touch pad.
The energy exposure settings should now be displayed on the LCD in flashing mode.
Note: YOUR ENERGY EXPOSURE SETTINGS DISPLAYED MUST BE MULTIPLIED BY
100. If settings are correct, push ENTER on the touch pad.
Push START on the touch pad. After a slight delay to energize the UV tubes, the LCD will
begin to countdown. The unit will stop automatically at the end of the exposure cycle and will
beep five times. Exposure is now complete.
D.
User-Defined UV Time Exposure Setting:
NOTE: For best exposure performance, turn the system on and allow 1-2 minutes for the
UV tubes to warm up immediately prior to exposing the sample.
Note: UV tube output intensity decreases with use over time. This change is not accounted
for in UV Time exposure applications.
Setting your own UV time exposure can be achieved as follows:
Push the TIME on the tactile touch pad and then set your requirements by pushing the
numbers. Your time exposure settings will be displayed on the LCD in flashing mode.
REMEMBER THAT YOUR TIME EXPOSURE SETTINGS ARE SET IN MINUTES AND
TENTHS OF A MINUTE. If your settings are correct, push ENTER on the tactile touch pad.
Push START. After a slight delay to energize the UV tubes, the LCD will begin to
countdown. The unit will stop automatically at the end of the exposure cycle and will beep
five times. Exposure is now complete.
At the end of the exposure cycle, simply open the door and remove your sample.
Operational Notes:
1. For best exposure performance when using a UV Time exposure, turn the system on and
allow 1-2 minutes for the UV tubes to warm up immediately prior to exposing the sample.
2.
To abort an exposure, press STOP on the tactile touch pad. The LCD will display the
remaining exposure.
3.
To restart an aborted exposure, press START on the touch pad. The exposure will continue
from the point at which the exposure was aborted.
4.
To reset an aborted exposure, press the RESET. The LCD and touch pad will return to the
used last setting.
5.
The unit will not operate with the door open. Opening the door during a cycle aborts the
cycle. Reclosing the door will reset the cycle to the last entered cycle used. To restart, press
the START key.
