Procedure
Install a water-filled flow cell, and take the following light source spectral data.
Perform this with the 1.2 nm slit and 8 nm slit, using the PDA Utility "Optical Check".

* When performing the saturation level measurement, remove the flow cell.
1) Install a water-filled semi-micro cell (P/N 228-34278-91), graph the D2 lamp spectral
data, and read the maximum value of P(V).
2) Assuming T1 (ms) is the exposure time setting, verify that P satisfies the following
expression.
