General Purpose Agilent ChemStation Software for UV-visible Spectroscopy — Overview
Standard Mode Tasks
The Agilent ChemStation modes also offer the ability to focus on a certain
aspect, many parameters have to be managed to customize a mode for a
certain application. To overcome this complexity your standard mode offers
an additional focus on tasks.
The standard mode of your general purpose software for UV-visible
spectroscopy is oriented towards the most common tasks performed in a
analytical laboratory that employs UV-visible spectroscopy. Four tasks are
available:
• Fixed Wavelength
• Spectrum/Peaks
• Ratio/Equation
• Quantification
A task is selected and activated from the analysis panel’s selection box.
This task orientation lets you quickly adjust the software to give you the right
view and answers based on your data. These tasks have been derived from a
survey of the most common UV-visible spectroscopic tasks done on a routine
basis in analytical laboratories. Historically these tasks have been developed
on filter photometers or scanning spectrophotometers.
With your spectrophotometer you have the advantage that by default the
entire UV-visible spectrum of your samples is available. So these four tasks do
offer only different views to your data acquired.
A task switch within the Standard mode is much faster than an entire mode
switch. An additional benefit of these tasks is that the definition of a method
is done within a single dialog.
