Entering Data

The Acceptance report is made with fields that should be filled out electronically. Because of different regional requirements and configurations, some fields will change based on region and configurations. Always start at the top and work down.

If the form does not open and allow editing, select View and then Edit Document first.

Filling out the form automatically populates some fields later in the form, such as Customer and Sales numbers.

Fill in the shaded fields with information. You can use the mouse to move from field-to-field. Do NOT use [Enter].

In many cases, a pull down selection can be made to make data entry easy.

The [DEL] key in a field clears the entry.

Security

This document uses macros to work properly. Be sure to Enable Macros in Trust Center settings.

Select View, then Edit in Word 2013 to allow the document to be edited.

Using pull-down choices

Select OK when a check of a section is completed successfully to acknowledge it is done.

Select Yes to confirm a configuration.

Select No if the check is not done, or not successful.

Select N/A if the check does not apply to the configuration, or can not be done for some reason.

Selecting a Region

Be sure to start the report with the correct region where the system is installed. If the region you need is not one of the available selections, you can add a region on page 4 of the form. Then select “Other” region pull down. The Region information will update after a region is selected and the next field is selected (or click on the [Tab] key).

Date of Report

The date field on page 1 should be the date the report is filled out.

Customer, EDAX Order #, Analyzer serial number

These are needed to identify the system.

The customer name should be the name of the Company where the system is installed.

The EDAX Order # (Sales Number or S#), can be found on the Shipping paper work, or in the “About” window from the TEAM or Genesis software.

***The Ardexus Product number can be obtained from the local Sales/Service office.

The Analyzer serial number can be found on an EDAX label on the computer workstation.

Customer Information – Fill out as required. If all of the address fields are not needed, enter a [-] in the empty field. The Customer field will be automatically carried over from Page 1.

System information – Enter the information as available.

The Analyzer Model in many cases will be the EDAX Computer, such as an “X1” or “HPZ230”. The Analyzer serial number will be carried over from the first page.

Enter the rest of the information as configured. If a printer is not supplied, enter “Not supplied” or N/A.

The EDAX Order Number will be carried over from Page 1.

Hyperthreading

To check if Hyperthreading is enabled

Type wmic in Windows run box

Type cpu Get NumberofCores,NumberofLogicalProcessors /Format:List n the window

If the number of Logical Processors > number of Cores, then Hyperthreading is enabled

Type exit to quit

Reboot and change Hyperthreading settings in the BIOS

Hard Disk write-cache buffer flushing: it is recommended to turn off the Windows write-cache buffer flushing option. Leaving it on can slow down the system response times. This setting is in the Windows Device Manager – Disk Drives – Policies tab

Electrical

Check the Mains Supply. Measure the actual input voltage where the EDAX system will plug into.

Record the Line Frequency in Hz where the EDAX system will plug into.

Check the Ground/Earthing where the EDAX system will plug into. Request information from the customer or building operations as needed. Select the appropriate response from the pull down selections.

Imaging – Set up the imaging for the microscope model per the specific microscope interface documentation. Use the service Shell to configure the imaging interface parameters.

Print the parameters from the Shell to a PDF and printer, if available. Select the response from the pull down selections.

Stage and Column Control – Select whether the system is configured with stage and/or column control software per the order. Add any specific notes as desired, such as IP address, or Com port used to the microscope control notes field.

Login Setup – This section confirms that the User has been shown how to log in to Windows and the EDAX software.

Page 3

EDS Information – List the actual information from the label on the detector.

Select the software installed on the system and version information.

EDAX Sales and Ardexus numbers are automatically filled in from previous entries.

EDS Detector – The detector should be installed and calibrated according to installation procedures in the service manual (on disk in c:\EDAX Service\Service Manuals) and the calibration Help files in the Shell program. Check each of the requested functions during installation and setup.

Note the data requested in each of the fields.

Mechanical stops (for detectors with a slide) should be set so the analyze position matches geometry on included data sheets, without touching any part in microscope.

The vacuum level of the microscope should be checked against the vacuum level before the detector was installed, per the installation procedure in the service manual.

The detector should be calibrated in the Shell program per the calibration procedure appropriate for the detector type.

The best resolution should be recorded. Note that the resolution is typically tested at a count rate of 10 kcps, but may vary per the individual detector. See the factory data sheets shipped with the detector for the actual test conditions used by the factory. If unable to achieve the resolution specifications, test using the same count rate used in the factory tests. The best resolution value may be at any Amp Time, any eV/Ch.

Customer Instructions for EDS

The customer should be provided with an overview during the installation so they can operate the system safety and collect basic analyses.

Comments / Notes – A free form area to add notes about the system that should be recorded.

Page 4

Installation documents – If any quality problems occurred during the installation, such as missing or damaged parts, they should be reported via the TFS system. See the local service manager for access.

Enter the Warranty start date.

The Customer and User names will be carried over from previous entries.

There is a line for a customer’s physical signature, if the form is printed.

EDAX Representative is the installing service engineer’s name and the date.

Contact information

Enter the information for the customer with the regional EDAX contacts for service, sales and applications.

Printing – The report is designed to be filled out electronically.

Under the Print menu option, set the pages to print, select the Page per sheet option, and select the Paper Size appropriate for your region. Select Scale to Paper Size for correct formatting.
