NOTE
You must install the correct peristaltic pump tubing for the wavelength
calibration:
Pump Drain
4100 MP-AES White/white Blue/blue
4200 and 4210 MP-AES Orange/green Blue/blue
2 Click the Instrument button.
3 Click Calibration.
4 Place the solution inlet tubing into the wavelength calibration
solution and allow the sample to reach the plasma.
5 Click Calibrate Instrument. The torch will be aligned and then a
wavelength calibration and a calibration check will be performed
automatically.
6 After a short while, an indication of the success or failure of the
calibration check will appear, as well as an indication of the
wavelength offsets.
7 If the calibration fails, check the sample introduction system. If
the system seems fine, prepare a new wavelength calibration
solution and try again, or consult the Troubleshooting section of
the MP Expert Help.
