Extracting chromatogram signal from PDA data
To add a signal at specific wavelength and then calibrate it, use the following work-flow.
- In the PDA window - use the horizontal line marker in the Isoplot View (alternatively vertical line marker in the Spectral View) and move it to you desired wavelength.
- Once satisfied with the current wavelength of the chromatogram, add the signal using the menu Chromatogram - Add Signal... command.
- Dialog for adding the signal will open. It is advantageous to use the signal's wavelength as the Add parameter. Fill in the details and click OK.
- In the Chromatogram window you will see there is a new signal called by the name of the signal it was created from, plus the name you have specified. (e.g. PAH - 232)
- Now you can calibrate chromatograms based on number of different wavelengths.
