ASTM Noise Test

The ASTM noise test determines the detector noise over a period of 20
minutes. The test is done with the flowcell removed, so the test results are not
influenced by solvent or pump effects. On completion of the test, the noise
result is displayed automatically.
This test is part of the detector self test only, see
