do this, on the Instrument Status page, under “Purges” click the “Boost” check box to activate the
purge.
Instrument Calibration
Return to step 14
Before starting the instrument performance tests, the detector calibration (dark current scan),
and wavelength calibration must be performed. These can be found on the “Instrument” -
Calibration” page of the Instrument Setup window.
Wavelength calibration and Detector calibration
A wavelength calibration needs to be performed the first time the instrument is run and when
new software is loaded. The wavelength calibration routine should only be run after a Detector
calibration is completed. The Detector calibration includes a dark current scan which captures
camera and electronic offsets with no light on the detector.
It is recommended that a wavelength calibration be performed monthly.
A wavelength calibration must also be performed when the polychromator purge gas is
changed. The gases that can be used for purge are either Ar or N
