Table 29  Energy calibration of the current spectrum  
Option  Description 
Spectrum display  The spectrum displays the current spectrum with all 
identified X-ray lines. Peaks that are selected for 
energy calibration are colored in blue. 
 
For the calibration the following steps are required:  
  Definition of the two energies (it is also possible 
to use the zero-peak. In this case the symbol is 
“0”). It is necessary to define which line series 
should be used. 
  The energies of the selected lines will be 
automatically defined. 
  The energy calibration will be started with the 
icon. 
  After calibration the new calibrated values are 
written into the corresponding fields. They have 
the following meaning: linear (channel width), 
absolute (start of the spectrum), Fano factor 
(detector parameter), FWHM Mn. 
The FWHM of the elements used for the calibration 
will be displayed.
