Power Up the Atomlab 500 and/or Atomlab Wipe Test Counter
The following steps detail the process for powering up the Atomlab 500/Atomlab Wipe Test
Counter:
•Plug the Power Strip into an AC wall outlet.
•On the Interface Module, verify that there is an LED indicator that is solid green and a
yellow flashing LED.
•Turn on the tablet computer power by pressing the power switch on the tablet.
•The Atomlab500 application software automatically runs when the tablet starts up.
•The Main Menu is displayed.
If the Main Menu is not displayed after the tablet boots up, a message will be displayed
indicating that the software is looking for a detector.
Note: Occasionally, the system boots before the detector. This can cause the system to
display a message stating that it has not identified a detector. If such a message is
displayed, touch <Rescan> to start a new search for the detector.
•When the detector is located, touch <Accept> to continue.
