		Scale: In the automatic scaling mode, the y-axis is automatically adjusted so that the total scan is
	Scale & Units	displayed.
	Scale & Units	The manual scaling mode allows sections of the scan to be displayed.

		Units: Choice of absorbance or transmittance.

	Instrument Setup	Basic data of the instrument, see section 5.2 on page 23.

λSetting wavelength

1.Press the λ key in the Options menu to select the wavelength range and the wavelength step.

2.Press the upper left key to open the numeric keypad and select the minimum wavelength. Press OK to confirm.

3.Press the upper right key to open the numeric keypad and select the maximum wavelength. Press OK to confirm.

Note: Do not select the same wavelength for minimum and maximum.

4.Highlight the required wavelength step.

Note: Scan recordings of high resolution data take a longer time than recordings of low resolution data.Selecting a larger step allows the instrument to scan faster, but decreases the resolution of the collected data.
