Peak width

The detector must know the width of the
narrowest peak on your chromatogram. The
detector uses this information to optimize the
presentation of peaks and to minimize baseline
noise.
To set the peak width accurately, run a
chromatogram using the default peak width
setting. Measure the width at half height of the
narrowest peak.
For most applications, the default setting of 10
seconds is adequate. Valid range is 0 and 4.0 to
99.0 seconds.
Note: If the peak widths on your trace vary by
more than a factor of 3 and if your work is noise-
sensitive, you may want to define a program file to
modify the peak width value at specified times
during the run. See Programming the Detector
page 3-42.
