Default reports
The default reports supplied by the software are the following.
Result Analysis report
This report displays the calculated particle size distribution for the selected record.
Parameter report
This report displays the measurement parameters for a record. It contains items
such as sample details, measurement options, whether any alarms have been trig-
gered, etc.
Sample fit report
This report shows how well the analysis data was fitted to the measurement data. It
gives an indication of how well the optical properties for the material were
described. For example, if the user had to predict the absorption value for a sample,
a bad choice will result in large differences in the fit.
Sample data report
This report displays the basic measurement data. It shows the background signal
measured and the actual measurement data. This report can be used to identify
problems with measurement data. For example, dirty optics will result in a poor
background signal (i.e. one with high values).
Result Difference report
This report compares two records and displays the difference. The first record
must be set as the reference by selecting it, then right-clicking and selecting Set
reference result.
Sieve reports (British standard and ASTM)
These two reports convert the measurement data so that they can be directly com-
pared to the equivalent sieve standard.
Result Statistics report
This report displays various statistics comparing two or more measurements.
Fit report
This report shows how well the analysis data was fitted to the optical model.
Grade Efficiency report
This report shows grade efficiency data. The online help gives more information
on this.
