HOME – Displays the
absorbance screen containing
the icons, and the Wavelength
and AUFS fields.
? – Displays context-sensitive
help when available.
Chart Mark – Causes a
momentary pulse to the
analog output (A and/or B,
depending upon the current
settings). This key has no
effect if chart mark is disabled
on both channels.
SCAN – Displays the list of
options for generating and
manipulating spectra.
Auto Zero – Sets the
absorbance offset so that the
analog output (A and/or B,
depending on the current
settings), reads 0 AU. You can
enable or disable the auto zero
function from the third
absorbance screen (see the
figure on
λ/λλ
– When you are on the
absorbance screen, use this
key to toggle between single
and dual wavelength modes.
The current mode is indicated
by an icon on the display.
Run/Stop – Starts or stops
(freezes) the run clock. (The
elapsed time appears near the
lower-right corner of the
absorbance screen.) Initiates
scans.
Reset – Resets the detector
run clock to 0 minutes.
Returns the detector to initial
conditions for the current
method.
