Alternate Data Formats
Mark one of the check boxes for an alternate RS-232 format. You can choose to
emulate the format from either a Model 2100 / Model 2300 TriCarb liquid
scintillation analyzer or a Model 2500 / Model 2700 Tri-Carb LSA. If you choose
not to emulate either of these alternate formats, your RS-232 data will appear as
defined by the selected Report Definition. You may NOT choose to emulate both
alternate data formats simultaneously.
Rich Text File
Enter a descriptive filename for the rich text file. QuantaSmart will automatically
assign an extension of RTF, the standard extension for a rich text file. The RTF file
is essentially a carbon copy of the output window.
Run Application
Select this to use the Tandem Processing feature of the system. This will cause an
external program to further process your data. If information is entered in any of
the fields, but the Run Application checkbox is unchecked, the information in the
fields is retained, but they are “grayed out.”
Application
When you mark the Run Application check box on the Report Output tab, you can
enter the name and location of a particular Tandem Processing application that
you want to run. If necessary, you can use the button to “browse” for the
application.
Application Browse Button
Click this button to display the browse window. Tandem processing allows the
instrument to analyze samples, perform data reduction and automatically pass the
data to an application program.
Data File
Select the type of data file to be processed by the application. The appropriate
filename will be “passed to the application” as a “command line parameter”.
Options in the drop down list are:
Data File - the file defined in the Data File section above is used
Rich Text File - the file defined in the Rich Text File section above is used.
None - No specific data file is identified for use.
