Getting Started

After unpacking the SunScan consignment and checking the contents against the packing list, you will want to know if everything is functioning correctly. All parts of the system are checked at our factory before despatch, so you should not anticipate trouble. If the SunScan carrying case is difficult to open, slacken the pressure release screw which is built into the carrying case moulding.

If you are an experienced user, the functional checks can be done in a few minutes with no difficulty. If you are a new user you will have to follow the steps below carefully and systematically, which will inevitably take somewhat longer.

Check the Data Collection Terminal first (the Psion Workabout), and then use it to check the SunScan probe. After that, you must install the SunData s/w on your PC. This will enable you to confirm communications with the probe, and to establish the data transfer link between the Workabout and your PC. Testing the Beam Fraction sensor will be left until the tutorial.

Preliminary checks

The following instructions should enable you to do the preliminary checks as quickly as possible, so explanations will be kept to a minimum.

The Workabout and SunScan probe

Step 1 - Getting a screen display

Unwrap the Workabout. The screen should be blank.

Press the yellow On/Esc button. A screen display should appear.

If it does, Step 1 is satisfactory.

If no screen appears, the Workabout may lack power. Proceed to the Workabout hardware checks below.

If you cannot successfully follow through these procedures, this may be because some starting condition is no longer set up exactly as it was when the Workabout left our factory. Do not abandon the tests, but proceed as far as you can through the successive steps.

Step 2 - Running SunData and communicating with the probe

The screen should be showing some icons, as above. This is the Psion system screen.

If something else is on-screen, try the following:

Press On/Esc (this will escape from any menus).

♦ Press +X, that is: hold down the grey Psi key and press X. (This will exit from

any application that is running.)

Warning! Do not Exit from the System screen itself! If you get the Exit System Screen? dialog press N. If you can't find the SunData application icon, it may have been lost after exiting the System screen. Proceed immediately to the section on Re- installing the SunData icon in More Psion and file handling notes to remedy the situation.
