Sample Spectrum Measurement

Data collection is performed according to the parameter settings in the Instrument Tab.
To begin sample measurement, click the Measure-Button on the Instrument Tab. Acquisition is completed automatically and the collected spectrum is displayed on the workspace immediately.

Regular Measurement​

Performing regular measurements with the TIDAS instrument is described in the following steps:

  1. Insert a sample.

  2. Setup the measurement parameters.

  3. Click the **Measure-**button in the Instrument Tab or select the command Measure Spectrum in the TIDAS Instrument Menu.

After completion of the measurement, the spectrum will be displayed in the 2D-View area. Depending on the measurement parameter setup the spectrum may also be automatically saved to a designated project.

Kinetic Measurement​

Performing kinetic measurements is very similar to the regular procedure. A kinetic measurement consists of a sequence of 2D measurements acquired with a particular delay time between the measurements. Collected data is saved in individual 2D spectra. The operator simply has to adjust the additional acquisition parameters Measurements and Interval:

  1. Insert a sample.

  2. Setup the basic measurement parameters.

  3. Enter an Interval time which is considered as pause between two measurements (see below).

  4. Click the **Measure-**button in the Instrument Tab or select the command Measure Spectrum in the TIDAS Instrument Menu.

The measured spectra will be displayed as individual, overlaid 2D-spectra in the 2D-view area. Depending on the measurement parameter setup the spectra may also be automatically saved to a designated project.
