5.1.1 Creating a New Data Set
Regular use of a spectrometer will soon result in the accumulation of large amounts of data.
Users will want to store data in conveniently named files so that they can easily access their
data later. This is particularly important in a multi-user environment. When a set of data is
acquired, it can be stored in what is called a data set. Each data set must have a unique
descriptor (identifier) so that different data sets can be distinguished. A full descriptor for a
data set requires the use of three parameters: NAME, EXPNO, and Directory.
• On the menu bar, click Acquire | Create Dataset to open the Create New Dataset
window.
• You can now create your own data set. For NAME you may enter a string of up to 13
characters. For EXPNO enter ’1’ or any suitable number. Select the directory path (for
example: C:\Data).
