Data Presentation command
Using the Data Presentations command, you can specify
the eight preferred wavelengths that are displayed in
the table on the Data Review Window. These wave-
lengths do not need to be at a directly calculated data point. The displayed
value is calculated using the selected curve fit. However, if a preferred wave-
length is outside the measurement range, the results are indicated in red.
Even though the preferred wavelengths are set, you can still type a wave-
length directly into the table to view its values. In the Data Review Window,
click
Recall
λ
to return the wavelengths to your preferred values.
