Lamp Intensity Scan

The intensity scan results in a spectrum of the currently installed lamp via the reference diode (200 to 1200 nm in 1 nm steps). The scan is displayed in a graphic window. There is no further evaluation of the test.

If not lit already, the test ignites the lamp and waits for three minutes. The scan starts afterwards.

To evaluate performance, compare the scan to the reference spectrum. However, do not base the evaluation solely on the scan results. Also consider other relevant chromatographic values, such as the signal-to-noise ratio.
