Running Probe for EPMA for the First Time
Simply double-click the Probe for EPMA icon to allow the program to configure these and any other necessary directories and files that it will need for analytical calculations and make sure that all of the analytical files are installed. Several sample data files are supplied to test the default installation.
Once this step is completed, the configuration of the hardware specific configuration files (PROBEWIN.INI, MOTORS.DAT and SCALERS.DAT) may be performed at this time using a text editor such as NotePad or TextPad. See below, under the Configuration Files section.
The JEOL 8900/8200/8500/8x30 and Cameca SX100/SXFive interfaces require a network connection with TCP/IP transport. Contact Probe Software for help with these modifications if necessary.
