Here are some other things you should be aware of when using the software:
• The toolbar is always displayed when you use EZ OMNIC E.S.P. It provides
a convenient way to initiate menu commands, macros and external programs.
See “Displaying and using a toolbar” in the “View” chapter for details.
You can use Edit Toolbar in the Edit menu to add available menu commands,
macros, DDE commands or other programs. You can also specify the size of
the toolbar buttons and whether text or icons, or both, appear on the buttons.
See “Customizing a toolbar” in the “Edit” chapter for details.
• The Search Method tab appears in the Library Setup dialog box of EZ
OMNIC to allow you to specify a library search method. If you select Use
Search Expert, the search expert determines the search algorithm to use for
the best result and always searches the spectral region from 2600 to
450 wavenumbers. If you select Use Correlation Search, the correlation
search algorithm is used for the search, and the search is performed over the
full spectral range. See “Selecting a search method in EZ OMNIC” in the
“Analyze” chapter for details.
• A special command called Create Library appears in the Analyze menu of EZ
OMNIC E.S.P. to allow you to create a user library. When you choose this
command, the Library Creation Wizard appears. The Wizard takes you through
the steps of creating a search library or QC library. If you need help using the
Wizard, see the procedures in the “Creating a user library” section in the
“Analyze” chapter for creating search libraries and QC libraries. Although those
procedures explain how to use the Wizard when it is displayed by the Create
Library button in Library Manager, the steps are the same starting with step 2.
(Library Manager is not available in EZ OMNIC E.S.P.)
• A special command called View Library appears in the Analyze menu of EZ
OMNIC E.S.P. to allow you to view the contents of a library. See “Viewing a
library in EZ OMNIC” in the “Analyze” chapter for more information.
