6.1 User Programs
User programs provide the opportunity of performing "made to
measure" analyses.
The User Programs database is empty when the instrument leaves
the factory and is used to accommodate programs created by users
for specific needs. Here are a few examples of entries:
• Programming of user-created procedures. The analysis
procedure must be developed first, before it can be
programmed. The user must define or determine the program
sequences, calculation formulas, measurement wavelengths,
factors, measuring range limits, etc.
• Modified tests.
• Assignment of user programs to the favorites menu for
frequently used tests.
• Creation of a specific selection of methods and tests
