Measurements
At this point, please consider whether the measurements are stored in PDA memory or
not. There are four alternatives:
–
Store the sample spectra (Figure 19). Sample spectra can then be downloaded onto
the computer and be post analyzed using Calcmet software. Go to Settings →
Autosaving → Autosave Spectra: All. Go to Settings → Save paths and click
“Browse...” to specify the root folder for saving files, the various file sub folders and
the name given to the saved spectrum files. Use the “built in” keyboard to enter the
spectrum name.

–
Store the background files. Background spectra can then be downloaded onto
the computer and checked using Calcmet software. Go to Settings → Autosaving
tab → Check Autosave Backgrounds. Use the “built in” keyboard to enter the
background name and its sub folder for saving.
–
Store the measurement results as a text file (*.txt) or HTML files. Go to Settings
→ Autosaving → Check Autosave Results as HTML or text file. Be sure that the
analysis is switched ON. Go to Measure and check Analyze.
–
Store the sample spectra AND the measurement results. This can be done by
selecting Measure → Analysis Enabled. Then, select Autosave Sample Spectra
option and Autosave Results option and select one of the three following options
in Settings → Autosaving:
o
Save spectra when high residuals (save the spectrum only when residual
of at least one analyzed component is higher than the residual limit).
o
Save spectra when concentration alarm (save the spectrum only when
concentration alarm is activated).
o
Save all spectra during analysis.
Note that only a limited amount of spectra must be stored in the PDA memory.
Download and erase spectrum files from the PDA when the amount is about a couple
