Category
Specification
Controller
The controller has been optimised for the rugged operation of the
IRmadillo spectrometer; it is not a general-purpose personal computer.
Keit does not recommend the installation of additional software; changes
to the configuration may affect performance and reliability.
User
accounts
There are two user accounts, one with system administrator privileges and
a second ‘standard’ user. The standard user account starts automatically
and is the default account for the KeitSpec software application. The system
administrator account is provided to make changes to the operating system
configuration and install additional software, if required.
Windows
updates
The controller is running Windows 10 LTSC with automatic updates
disabled by default. The local administrator should choose when/if to
update the operating system. A strategy will be required to manage
updates, particularly if the controller is connected to a network.
Anti-virus
There is no anti-virus installed. The controller should only be connected to
internal, protected networks. Install your preferred anti-virus if required
For detailed information on the controller, see Appendix 1:
4.3. Storage conditions
When installed with purge and power, the IRmadillo can thermally control its internal
temperatures up to the limit specified on the product label. However, if the system is to be
stored before its use Keit recommends an air-conditioned environment. The environment must
be non-condensing, with a relative humidity below 95%. The IRmadillo or storage container
should also be out of direct sunlight.
WARNING
Storing the IRmadillo unpowered and unpurged in unsuitable
conditions can cause damage to the instrument. If in doubt,
please consult with Keit
In contrast, the controller must be both stored and operated in a safe, non-hazardous
environment. Keit recommends an air-conditioned environment, which is non-condensing and
has a relative humidity below 90%. See Appendix 1:
information.
WARNING
Storing or operating the IRmadillo’s controller in unsuitable
conditions can cause damage. If in doubt, please consult with
Keit
