60 ANALYZING PRODUCT
SAMPLE DRAWER
The sample drawer has two sections:
• Sample section
• Ceramic Reference Disk section
When the sample drawer is open between analyses, all optical filters are
successively positioned over the ceramic reference disk. The gathered
reflectance data, at each of the selected wavelengths, is stored and
available for the next analysis.
When the drawer is closed, the light reflected from the sample at each of
these wavelengths is measured again. The machine logarithms used in the
regression equation are measurements of the ratio of sample reflectance
data to the reflectance data gathered from the ceramic reference disk.
NOTE: Manual entry of a Sample ID
can be avoided by enabling the
Automatic ID at the Results
Settings screen.
