Operators Manual

35040 Customization Software, verify that COM PORT indicator is green, and click on the UPLOAD button.

We recommend that you print a copy of the customization report (Print) as your first step in the customization process. This report contains all of the customization values and thus serves as a guide for returning to the original settings should an operator keyboard error occur during the process. Additionally, print a copy of the customization report as the final step in the customization process. Use this final report to verify the new customization parameter values, and then save it in a safe place for future reference. Reports can also be generated and saved as text files. Refer to Section 3.10.7, FILE SAVE AS and FILE PRINT.

3.10.5 Downloading

The Customization software sends (downloads) information through the RS-232 link to the Model 35040 Therapy Dosimeter. This action happens automatically after you confirm the changes that you make to any parameter. After downloading, the instrument sends back the information it received. The Customization software compares the reply to what it sent down in order to verify that the screen display and instrument contents are the same. In some cases, the downloading process may last several seconds.

3.10.6 Menu Items and Controls

Refer to Figure 3-33 for the Menu Items and Controls that are at the top of each Customization form. The operation of the controls is the same for all forms.
