Peakwidth enables you to select the peak width (response time) for your analysis. The peak width is defined as the width of a peak, in minutes, at half the peak height. Set the peak width to the narrowest expected peak in your chromatogram. The peak width sets the optimum response time for your DAD. The peak detector ignores any peaks that are considerably narrower, or wider, than the peak width setting. The response time is the time between 10% and 90% of the output signal in response to an input step function. When the All spectrum storage option is selected, then spectra are acquired continuously depending on the setting of the peak width. The time specified by the peak width is used as a factor in the acquisition of spectra. The acquisition time for one spectrum is slightly less than the peak width divided by 8, that is, the acquisition time is between 0.01 seconds and 2.55 seconds.
Limits: When you set the peak width (in minutes), the corresponding response time is set automatically and the appropriate data rate for signal and spectra acquisition is selected as shown in the tables:
Peakwidth at half-height (min) | Response Time (sec) | Data Rate (Hz) (<= 126 pts/scan) | Data Rate (Hz) (<= 251 pts/scan) |
