Operation
System start up is a single switch operation with automatic pump down and system preparation. With the Odyssey as the measurement heart of the system, the POLARIS benefits from the system capabilities of the Odyssey controller. Measurement cycle control and clear display of system status are provided through the front panel as highlighted below..
| LED's indicate measurement hardware status | Clear Bar Graph display of signal levels |
| Two line display provides signal indication and user prompts | Quick access keys for menu navigation | Two button system operation STOP and START | Single button CALIBRATION | Single button BACKGROUND Zeroing |
Operation can be further simplified with the option of the Bar Code Scanner allowing a single 'scan' to represent a 'macro' style operation. This can also be used for product registration, the information (together with the test results for that component) being made available for communication to plant computer via the RS232 or Ethernet interfaces.
