How to interrupt scintillation
HOW TO PERFORM AN INTERRUPT OF ANONGOING AUTOCOUNT1). This program interrupts the ongoing autocount to allow the counting of asmall number of vials- only one rack of vials. If you have more than onerack to count, think creatively and I'm sure you'll figure out how to countthem all with the help of the interrupt function.2.) HOW TO USE THE INTERRUPT FUNCTION:a). Load your samples onto a rack bearing the INTERRUPT card.Put the interrupt card in the frontmost card holder (left side).b.) Put your rack in with the other racks from the autocount. Place yourrack near the front (the scintillation counter will find the interrupt rackno matter where you place it).c.) Press the yellow INTR button. You are presented with the followingdisplay printed on the paper where the counts are printed, and theediting light will go on:d). Most people will press -2- (INTERRUPT AUTO) and enter this bypressing the RETURN button, since most people will have a rack ofsamples to count rather than a single tube (-1-).e). Press blue USER NUMBER button (don't press the return button). Thescintillation counter then displays the various numbers of the countingprograms.f). Press the number of the desired program for counting the interruptsamples and press the STORE PROG button.g). Press MAN COUNT button.h). The machine will automatically count your tubes and will resume theprevious Autocount after processing the last sample in the interruptrack. Your counts will be printed out on a peice of paper separate fromthe previous autocount.i). Be absolutely certain when finished with the interrupt function thatthe previous autocount has been continued!!!j). More information about this function is found in the manual for thescintillation counter on page 4-2.
