1. Press the Setup button until “ CCD Mode" displays. Two options are available:

• If you set the system to 263Hz (default), the full display of the CCD is used and

the camera operates at 263Hz.

• For faster operations (1KHz), set the system to 1KHz. At the faster speed, only the

ﬁ rst quarter of the CCD camera display is used for making measurements.

Aligning the Laser and the Camera

WARNING: DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR EYES TO LASER LIGHT. EVEN REFLECTED

LASER LIGHT MAY BE HARMFUL. ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE LENSES WHEN

WORKING WITH LASERS.

1. Turn on the system. See "Turning the System On" on page 24.

2. Enable the laser. By default, the laser is always disabled on startup. See "Turning On/

Off the Laser" on page 30. When the laser is enabled, a red dot (the laser beam)

appears near the cross hair mark on the front of the camera.

3. The laser beam (center beam) must hit the cross hair mark on the CCD camera front

plate.

Fig. 31 The cross hair mark is etched on the front of the camera, which is mounted just behind

the optical cuvette.
