Appendix CAPPENDICES 38TroubleshootingSpectrometer HeadProblemCheckProblemCheckNo spectroradiometer response (unable to take a reference or a target scan)If the power indicator is illuminated, check the battery voltage indication by usingeither the up and down arrows. (It must be above 6.0 volts for proper instrumentoperation,)**SAT** comes up on the indicator for a measurement scan.Check INTSP parameter for automatic operation. This resets the integration timeand takes the detector out of saturation. The integration speed is discussed inSection 1 - Spectroradiometer Description.Problem The measurement is not consistent with predicted values.CheckProblemCheckCheck the entrance optic setting. This can be done from the edit mode of theinstrument with the optic function or in the computer assisted operation from thesetup selection in the control menu.There is no response in the computer assisted operation.Check the COM2 spectroradiometer port to make sure that it is used to connectthe spectroradiometer to the computer. Check the control->setup menu “Port”setting to make sure that the correct PC COM port number is being used by thePC software.If the trouble still persists go to the setup selection in the control menu and check that the proper computerport is being used. Reset the port if necessary.PDA GPS DataProblemCheckThe Ctrl->Get GPS display remains blank. (Note that normal satellite lock on aclear day with good sky visibility takes between 2 and 10 minutes after initial powerup.)When using the Holux model GM-271 internal PDA receiver, use the PDA utility“GPS Viewer” found in the PDA’s Start->Programs menu in order to debug theGPS. The documentation for this program can be found in a folder called “GPSViewer Docs” within the PDA software’s installation directory (typically“C:\Program Files\Spectra Vista\GER1500pda\”). The GPS Viewer program(mGpsCmd.exe) allows you to Scan for the correct PDA COM port setting, andprovides a graphical display of position/satellite lock status.IMPORTANT: When switching between the mGpsCmd utility and theGER1500pda program, be sure to Soft Boot the PDA, as both programs mayattempt to open the same PDA COM port.If the GPS Viewer appears to display correct data, check that the PDA COM portthat the program uses is the same as configured in the GER1500pda configurationGER 1500 USER MANUAL, REVISION 3.7

See Appendix B - GER1500pda Configuration File for moreinformation.PDA Bluetooth – Cannot Connect To GER1500ProblemCheckYou are unable to control the GER1500 using the PDA’s bluetooth connection.The PDA’s bluetooth “virtual COM port” is generally COM8 when the defaulthardware is installed in the DAP 2240X PDA under the Windows Mobile 5.0operating system.To verify the actual Bluetooth COM port number that should be used by theGER1500pda software, from the PDA’s Main screen, tap the following menus:Start->Settings->Connections Tab->Bluetooth->COM Ports TabThe following screen should appear:If your PDA screen look similar (the GER1500-xxxx serial number may bedifferent), then use the COM port shown when connecting the ger1500pdasoftware via Bluetooth – COM8 in the example above.If you do not see a GER1500 connection listed, then proceed to Appendix I, PDASoftware / Bluetooth Configuration Procedure in order to configure the PDA’sbluetooth interface for use with the GER1500.If you do see the GER1500 connection listed, and the communication problem isnot fixed by a PDA Soft Boot (See PDA Soft Reset Procedure – M2240X inAppendix L), then try deleting GER1500 entries from the “COM Port” and“Devices” tabs (above), and then following the procedure found in PDA Software /Bluetooth Configuration Procedure in order to re-associated and re-establish the PDABluetooth GER1500 configuration.GER 1500 USER MANUAL, REVISION 3.7
