Wavelength calibration
Problem
The position of an absorption (transmission or reflectance) peak
appears to shift over a prolonged period of time.
Solution
 Perform a wavelength calibration.
 Restart the computer. Agilent recommends that as part of your
standard operating procedure, you restart the computer attached
to the Cary 50 monthly.
 Perform the Instrument Performance Test suite in ‘Validate’ to
ensure the instrument results meet specification.
