Hi Karen,
Yes, for re-processing data you simply answer "No" to the first question: "Do you want to interface to the instrument hardware?" Then your data files will work just fine for data re-processing with the default installation...
But you'll need to copy your own Standard.mdb compositional database to the off-line computer from your on-line computer. After that you simply copy the MDB and BIM (if found) files from your probe run to the off-line computer and then all data re-processing features (standard re-assignments, background modeling options, interference corrections, TDI corrections, custom outputs, etc., etc.) will be available.
Alternatively you can answer "Yes" and use the existing default configuration files (JEOL) for demonstration purposes. But if you want to perform demonstrations using your own lab configuration you'll need to copy over these files in the Probe For EPMA folder (usually C:\Probe Software\Probe for EPMA) from your probe computer :
Probewin.ini
motors.dat
scalers.dat
detectors.dat
crystals.dat <-- this is the one file you missed!
usermac.dat <-- if you created a "custom" mass absorption coefficient file
charges.dat <-- only if you modified it (not likely)
elements.dat <-- only if you modified it (not likely)
custom.fc <-- if you modified the custom color palette file
standard.mdb <-- if not already copied as described above for off-line data processing!
custom.mdb <-- if you created a custom database for phase matching in CalcImage
*.wmf files <-- if you want to run demonstration mode using your lab configuration files on an off-line computer
Depending on the situation you *might* also want to copy your other lab specific files just as a backup:
user.mdb
setup.mdb
setup2.mdb
position.mdb
probewin.err
empapf.dat <-- only if you modified the empirical area-peak factor (APF) file (not likely)
empfac.dat <-- only if you modified the empirical alpha factor file (not likely)
empmac.dat <-- only if you modified the empirical mass absorption coefficient file (not likely)
emppha.dat <-- only if you modified the empirical PHA calibration file since installation
xline.dat <-- only if you modified the x-ray line data file (not likely)
xedge.dat <-- only if you modified the x-ray edge data file (not likely)
xflur.dat <-- only if you modified the x-ray fluorescence yield data file (not likely)
probewin-ka.cal <-- these are the multiple point calibration files for the spectrometers and may not be present
probewin-kb.cal
probewin-la.cal
probewin-lb.cal
probewin-ma.cal
probewin-mb.cal
For the most realistic off-line demonstrations you'll probably want to copy these files as well:
*.POS <-- all the .POS files in your StandardPOSData folder (usually C:\UserData\StandardPOSData) and copied to the corresponding folder on your off-line computer.
Finally: if you want to run in demonstration mode on your off-line computer you'll need to make one small edit to your Probewin.ini file and change the following keyword located in the [hardware] section of the Probewin.ini file from non-zero to zero as seen here:[hardware]
InterfaceType=0
And then you won't need that darn registration number at all!
