See “Searching a spectral library” for details on how a spectral search is
performed and how the results are displayed.
Note
If you want to save your changes to the library setup parameters, save the
experiment using Experiment Setup in the Collect menu. Each time you open the
experiment, the parameters will be set automatically. See “Using Experiment
Setup” in the “Collect” chapter for details. ▲
Set up a QC comparison (The procedure for setting up a spectral search precedes
this procedure.)
1. If you want to specify spectral regions for the comparison graphically,
select a spectrum you plan to compare.
2. Choose Library Setup from the Analyze menu.
The Library Setup dialog box appears with the Search Libraries tab displayed.
3. Specify the directories that contain the libraries and library groups you
want to include in the comparison.
To add a directory to the list of directories, choose Add Directory. In the dialog
box that appears, locate and select the desired directory, and then choose Select.
To delete a directory from the list, select it and choose Remove Directory.
(The directory remains on the hard disk; it is removed only from the list.)
Note
There must always be at least one directory in the list. If you remove the last
remaining directory, the Initial User Library default directory specified in the File
options (available through Options in the Edit menu) will be placed in the list. ▲
4. Click the QC Libraries tab and use its features to specify the libraries
and groups to include.
To add one or more libraries or groups to the list in the QC Libraries And
Groups box, select the desired items in the list in the Available QC Libraries
And Groups box and then choose Add. You can select more than one library or
group at a time by holding down the Control key and clicking the desired items.
To see which libraries are contained in a group, select the group. The libraries
it contains are listed in the View Selected Group Contents list box.
To remove one or more libraries or groups from the list in the QC Libraries
And Groups box, select the items in the list and then choose Remove.
To delete a group from the list of available libraries and groups, select it and
then choose Delete Group. The libraries contained in the group remain on the
disk; only their association as a group is removed.
To create a group, set up the list of libraries and groups for the comparison as
described above and then choose Save QC List As Group. A message asks for
a title for the group. Enter a title and then choose OK. A new group
containing the libraries and groups in the list is created and added to the list of
available libraries and groups.
