Response Delay of Signal Height (mV)
The signal height of A/O chromatograms is displayed with a response delay of approx. 70 %
compared with HMI and ASET chromatograms.

Auto Gain
This is a function to change (enlarge or reduce) the display width of chromatogram signals
according to gain values.
The display width is calculated as follows.
Type of chromatogram
Display width of chromatogram signals
HMI and ASET
1000.000 mV/2^[Gain]
A/O
16 mA/2^[Gain]
4 V/2^[Gain] when a 250-ohm shunt resistor is used
Example: Gain:
5
Display width of HMI and ASET chromatograms:
1000.000 mV / 2^5 = 31.250 mV
Display width of A/O chromatograms: 16 mA / 2^5 = 0.5 mA
4 V / 2^5 = 0.125 V (Shunt resistance: 250 ohm)
There are three types of auto gain function as listed below. The calculation method of the display
width and the relevant types of chromatogram differ among them.
