Disconnect the receiving fiber V1 from the back panel of the DualPDA<br />

detector unit. Exchange the 488nm (blue) interference filter with a 514.5nm<br />

(green) in following instructions above (chapter 7.5.3). One extra 514.5nm<br />

filter is supplied with every DualPDA detector unit.<br />

Connect the detector unit, receiving fiber <strong>and</strong> processor<br />

The four receiving fibers from the DualPDA probe have to be connected<br />

according to the label of the fiber <strong>and</strong> detector unit connectors. The first<br />

three photomultiplier (with the 3 green interference filters) have to be<br />

connected to the first three input channels of he processor. The fourth<br />

photomultiplier (with the blue interference filter) has to be connected to the<br />

fourth input channel of the processor.<br />

Select FiberPDA in the <strong>BSA</strong> flow software.<br />

Configure <strong>and</strong> use the <strong>BSA</strong> flow application software for a FiberPDA<br />

receiving probe.<br />

7.6 A guide to define the PDA optical configuration:<br />

<strong>Installation</strong><br />

The PDA optical configuration is an Excell spreadsheet allowing<br />

determining the best scattering angle <strong>and</strong> the scattering mode to be used for a<br />

given application. The PDA optical configuration spreadsheet is avalaible<br />

with particle sizing add-on only.<br />

<strong>and</strong> getting started The Excel spreadsheet is automatically installed in C:\Program Files\Dantec<br />

Dynamics\<strong>BSA</strong> <strong>Flow</strong> <strong>Software</strong> when the application software is installed. It<br />

requires Excell to be installed on the PC.<br />

The PDA Optical configuration guide is launched from the Tools menu, in<br />

Plug-Ins (see figure Figure 7-61).<br />
