All input steps and their significance and options are explained in
the following sections.
1. From Program Options, select New.
Program Number:
Specific test number, with which the program can subsequently be
called up from the selection list in the User Programs menu or the
Favorites menu.
2. Use the alphanumeric keypad to enter a program number
between 950 and 999. The lowest available number appears
automatically.
3. Press OK.
Note: If the program number is already assigned to another user
program, a message appears, asking whether the existing program
should be replaced. Press

Description
Measurements at a defined wavelength.
In the Multi Wavelength mode, absorbance values can be measured at up to four wavelengths
and the results can be mathematically processed to obtain sums, differences and relationships.
This is an advanced form of programming for original user-developed methods. In Free
Programming, the user defines the measurement process, variables, and calculations involved in
obtaining a reading. See Appendix B on page 91
