JEOL 7000F Exploring the JEOL Control Program
Goals • Look at all of the menu items and their functions. • Note where icon brings up the same function. • Look at any items not in menu but brought up by icons and vice versa. • Other items of interest?
File Menu - 1 • User Login • Image File Handling • We will look at elsewhere • Image Save As … • Quick Save Options • Auto Batch Export • Print - NO PRINTER • Exit
File Menu - User Login • Advantage is storage of your individual image observation conditions. • List of users. • Login as user brings up password.
File Menu - Image Save As … • Brings up the fairly typical “Save As” Dialog Box.
File Menu - Auto Batch Export • Allows transfer of image files in a batch. • Non-exported files do not contain associated text and scale bar on the image.
Edit Menu • Copies the image to the clipboard. • Example, the can be pasted to MS Paint
Control Menu • Column • Contrast/Brightness • Need live image • Use knobs on JEOL Operation Pad • Add Images • Alignment • See JEOL Operation Pad • We will discuss later
Control Menu – Column 1 • Column Control can be reached either through the Control Menu pull down or, • Clicking the Column Icon on the Tool Bar.
Control Menu – Column 2 • Accelerating Voltage • High-light and type in new value • Click arrows • From 0.5 – 2.9 kV steps are 0.01 kV • From 3.0 – 30 kV steps are 0.10 kV • OL Aperture • Set to the same value as the OL Aperture on column • For most users, almost always “4”
Control Menu – Column 3 • SEI Detector • Usually On (green) • Mode • Sets the bias on the Faraday cage in front of the SE scintillator. • Normally at “3” but set to a lower value if using high beam currents (Large spot sizes).
Control Menu – Column 4 • Column Mode: • SEM - Leave it here (green) • ECP – Electron channeling - No body does this now. • ALP – Alignment usage for service engineer. • Focus: • Can course focus using the numbers and slide • Probe (beam) current: • Higher the number the more current in the electron beam hitting the sample.
Control Menu – Column 5 • Scan Rotation: • Normally this is OFF (0) • DFC • Almost always OFF
Control Menu – Add Images • Allows mixing of different signals. • For example, backscattered and secondary electron. • Not often used.
Image Menu – General – 1 • Image File Handler … • Display Thumbnails • Self explanatory • Use 24 Bits for Export • Self explanatory • Save to AnalySIS • AnalySIS is an imaging database program. • Select SIS Database
Image Menu – General – 2 • Show Pan Window with 2K Image • Opens pan window with large 2k x 2k images • Overlap … • Overlaps 2 images • Contrast/Brightness/Gamma … • Image Processing • Various image filters
Image Menu – Image File Handler • Several ways to get there: • Icon on Tool bar • Image menu • File Menu
Image File Handler – 1 • Select a folder for saving images, • Print - No printer • Export • Adds scale bar and other information to stored image • Much easier to use theAuto Batch Exportin the File Menu drop down if you have many images you want to export. • Other options are generally self explanatory
Image File Handler – 2 • Saw this window before in looking at the File Menu. • You see the same thing if you go to File Menu, then Image Save As
Image Menu – Contrast/Brightness/Gamma • Tool bar icon • Histogram • Gray scale • Gain adjustment slider • Correction curve • Hi – Lo Thresholds • Linearize – Equalize – Invert • Contrast/Brightness/Gamma Sliders
Tools Menu • Annotate and Measurement • Add and edit text • Measure distance between two arbitrary points • Cursor Measurement • Measures distance between two points specified by the cursor.
Tools Menu – Annotate and Measurement • Append Annotate and Measure • USE ICON • Load Annotate and Measure • Loads saved text • Save Annotate … • Saves the text created • Delete All Annotate … • Deletes all text and figures on the screen • Set Measurement …
Stage Menu • Exchange • Control • Map Control • Motion Abort • ESC Key stops movement of the stage. • Alarm Recovery • If specimen holder comes in contact with a detector then Alarm Sounds; holder stops.Alarm Recovery frees stage to move
Stage Menu – Exchange • Described previously • Specimen Exchange operations
Stage Menu – Control • Step Movement of the stage • Relative position indicator • Stage movement operation • STOP & Center buttons • Stop – stops stage movement • Center – moves to specimen exchange
Stage Menu – Map Control • Snap Shot • Designate an observation range on a saved image, then move the stage to the range • Stage Map • Movement of stage through Points File orStage Map
Setup Menu • Recipe Setup • Operation • Stage • User Login • Sets user login conditions
Maintenance Menu • Normally these should not be altered. • Gun • Stage • JEOLS … • for JEOL engineer only
Other Items • REPLACE ALL TOOLS • Dispose of trash • Leave the lab in good order. • LOG IN / LOG OUT • Note any problems
