Unfortunately, this is still occurring with the latest update (10.8.x). I think it started with 10.6.x.
Hi Mike,
This is very strange as Paul said it is not occurring on his 8200.
Would you be able to put the software in DebugMode (from the Output menu) and run a single spectrometer peak center (with an initial offset to force the coarse peak scan), and send me the log window output to examine?
I ran a highest intensity peaking and cannot reproduce your issue:
1. I acquired a peak scan for Mo La on Mo metal (20 keV, 100 nA) and get 68834 as the peak center as seen here:
2. I then detuned the spectrometer by specifying a peak center of 61960 and ran a peak center. The fine scan ran like this:
3. The fine scan failed (too close to edge of scan), so it automatically ran a coarse scan as seen here:
4. Note that it found the proper peak center of 61833. The 2nd fine scan then ran automatically as seen here:
So something must be wrong with your config or something as I do not see a problem...? Or perhaps a mechanical issue?
