This dialog page is used to display curves of the determination

loaded in the working memory. It is accessible only in the

instrument mode

* READY *

.

In addition to the display of the various types of curves for the

individual substances or segments, here interactive parameters

for scaling, substance recognition and the baseline calculation

can be changed and spikes eliminated manually.

In the selection of this dialog page, the following rules apply:

When the "CURVES" page is selected for the first time, the first

substance is displayed on this page, with later selections the

last selected substance.

Without special entry for the VR value, the smoothed curves of

all variations with replication 0 are shown for the selected

substance (

Substance-*0-smoothed

).

Simultaneous pressing of the keys and

displays the original curve with

VR = 00

for the

first segment directly (

Segment-00-original

).

If no substance has been defined, following a warning the

original curve with

VR = 00

for the first segment is shown

(

Segment-00-original

).

With parameter changes, the following must be noted:

Changes in the display/plot, recognition or baseline parame-

ters lead to a recalculation and updated display of the curve.

These changes are temporary, i.e. they are canceled after exit

with .

Parameter changes are permanently incorporated in the

method only if they are stored with

. To ensure

that these changes are also effective for the calculation of all

peak and wave results, a recalculation must be initiated with

on the "MONITORING" page (see section 5.5.1).

In the manual elimination of spikes, the following holds:

After closure with , the spike elimination automati-

cally initiates a recalculation with the changed measured

values. In order to access the original experimental data, the

softkey

on the "MONITORING" page

must be pressed.

In storage of a determination in the determination memory or

on the data card, the original experimental data (

original

) are

retained, but not those measured values changed with the

manual spike elimination (

processed

).

Before any type of parameter changes, it is advisable to store the

determination in the determination memory or on a data card to be

able to fall back on the unchanged determination and method in an

emergency.
