Take Background
Every Scan
This feature minimizes the effect of possible
instrument drift on scan results.
Default is (On).
When On, the instrument will collect a
new dark background spectrum with
every measurement and subtract that
from the spectrum collected with the
laser on.
When (Off), the instrument will
use the most recently collected dark
background spectrum.
