| The preprocessing step(s) will be applied to the Scope spectrum after clicking the capture button. You need to add the desired preprocessing step(s) and algorithm before capturing the data.
|
Please follow the steps below to add a preprocessing step and select the desired algorithm:
- Click on the
 button to add a preprocessing step. 
- Click on the dropdown under the “Preprocessing Step” column and select a preprocessing step.
- Once the preprocessing step is selected, you can choose a specific algorithm from the dropdown list in the “Algorithm” column. Note that some preprocessing steps only have one algorithm, so there won’t be a dropdown in the “Algorithm” column for those cases.
- To configure the algorithm parameters, click on the
 icon next to the selected algorithm. This will open a configuration popup window where you can modify the algorithm parameters. If icon is not shown, it means that the algorithm does not have any configurable parameters.
- In the configuration window, make the necessary changes to the algorithm parameters and click “Set” to confirm the setting.
- Repeat the steps above to add all the desired preprocessing steps and algorithms. Note that the preprocessing algorithms will be applied in the order they are listed. To add a new preprocessing algorithm before the current one, click on the button in front of the current step. To remove an algorithm, click on the
 button.
- Finally, click on the capture button
 to capture the data. This will apply all the preprocessing steps in the listed order to the Scope spectrum, and other data will be computed based on the new Scope spectrum.
