4.6.3 Measuring against the Reference absorbance
Each time the photometer is switched on, the absorbance or transmission is
measured against the absorbance of the zero adjustment as a basis. You
can, however, also determine a Reference absorbance and use it as the
basis.
The Reference absorbance refers to the adjusted wavelength. The measured
value remains stored until
the photometer is switched off
the cell type is changed
the wavelength is changed
a new reference value is measured
it is deleted manually ([Reference] / Delete).
the Absorbance / % Transmission measuring mode is exited
Single and multiple
determination
The Reference absorbance can be determined with single or multiple deter-
mination. With multiple determination, the mean value is calculated as the
median from the individual measured values.

1 Start the reference measurement
with [Reference].
If a value for the reference absor-
bance is already stored, it can be
deleted or overwritten by a new
reference measurement.
After the reference absorbance
value has been deleted, the pho-
tometer measures against the
absorbance of the zero adjust-
ment.
