Dear DMX users:
We have a DMX-600 spectrometer installed in January, 1994. Since
then, we have spent tremendous time to trouble shoot the system. The
most annoying thing is that the spectrometer does different things at
different time in the same experiment with nothing changed i.e. the same
pulse program, the same parameters, the same version of software and the
same hardware configurations. For example, just repeat 'zg' command
in the same experiment, the system will start to acquire data nicely, or give
message:'acquisition started' but not sending any pulse from any channel,
or give different error messages. We are not trusting the spectrometer to
collect any useful data with this kind of inconsistency.
Does anyone have any thoughts for it? Is this a software related problem
or hardware problem? Does anyone have the similar problems? Is there any
solution for it?
