Optimize Regions
The Optimize Regions function allows you to eliminate a portion of the
background counts and thus increase the overall Figure of Merit for a counting
procedure for samples with constant quench using Normal count mode.
If you would like the instrument to automatically optimize the sample counting
regions with respect to the chemical environment of the sample, you can perform
the Reverse Region compensation procedure prior to region optimization. The
Reverse Region compensation feature is typically used for samples with variable
quench; it allows the instrument to determine what the endpoint equivalent for
the nuclide spectrum would be if the sample was not quenched.
