Spectrum Graph

The Spectrum Graph menu option displays a new curve of spectral data on the open graph based on

the parameters set in the Acquisition toolbar. Each new curve you create appears as a different color in
the graph. Graphs appear in scope mode by default.

If you click on a curve, its corresponding parameters appear in the Acquisition toolbar. The data source
(spectrometer) is listed in the Source box.

Procedure

To display a spectral graph, follow the steps below:

1. Select File | New | Spectrum Graph

Or

Click

in the Data Display toolbar. A dialog box appears asking if you want to display the

new graph in the current graph tab, or start a new graph tab.

2. Choose where the new graph will be displayed and click

.

3. Set the desired parameters (integration time, scans to average, and boxcar width).

The sample below shows a graph with three spectral curves (blue, pink and orange) in the same
graph tab.
