Linking the calibration to a method

If you have a large number of samples to be measured and subsequently evaluated using a particular calibration, linking the calibration to each chromatogram separately would be a time-consuming process. To avoid this, you can link the calibration to a method used for the measurement beforehand.

  • Return to the Instrument window and use the Method - Calculation... command to open the Method Setup dialog directly on the Calculation tab as shown on Fig "Method Setup - the Calculation tab". Alternatively, you can use any command from the Method menu and then move to the Calculation tab. All of these sections (and some others) are part of the template method; thus they are present within the same dialog but on different tabs.
  • Use the Set... button to select the calibration file and link it to the method.
  • Exit the Method Setup dialog using the OK button. Clicking this button saves this change to the template method.
  • Any chromatograms measured using this template method in the future will be automatically linked to the chosen calibration.
