5.3.9 Multidimensional Acquisition Tools
– Time Series
The Time Series tool is only available if the Time
Series box in the tab activation area is checked
(Fig. 338).
In the Time Series tool you can set kinetics
parameters.
• Click on the Time Series tool tab to open or
close the Time Series tool (Fig. 313).
You have the following input boxes:
Number
Indicates how often kinetic data points will be
taken. Enter a number in the input box or use the
scroll arrows.
Point to point time
Defines on how the single kinetic data points will
be spaced in time.
Note, if the spacing is to short for a kinetic
data point to be finished, the system will
take the minimal required time, i.e. it
completes the data point and immediately
starts the next.
Shape
allows you to choose from three possibilities of
distributing the time spacing between single data
const
points: (constant)
(Fig. 315) and exp (exponential) (Fig. 316). Choose
the appropriate entry from the drop down menu.
Summand
allows to define the linear increase in the spacing
between data points if linear was chosen in
Shape. Factor allows to define the exponential
increase in the spacing between data points if exp
was chosen in Shape. For const this option is
disabled. Select a summand / factor by choosing an
appropriate one from the drop down menu. Note
that only predefined values are available.
