Operation 5

5.6

Checking the signal

Especially after you have replaced a spectrometer component (source, laser, beamsplit-
ter, detector), it is advisable to check whether a signal is detected, and to check the sig-
nal intensity (signal amplitude).

If a liquid nitrogen-cooled detector is used, the detector must be cooled (chapter 5.9) 
before a signal can be detected.

5.6.1

Procedure

1.

Make sure that the spectrometer sample compartment is empty, or contains a gas 
cell the windows of which are transparent in the spectral range desired.

2.

On the OPUS 

Measure

 menu, select the 

Advance Measurement 

command.

3.

Select appropriate measurement parameters.

4.

Click the 

Check Signal

 tab.

5.

Activate the 

Interferogram

 option button.
