4.3.2.6 Peak Detection<br />

This section of the window contains option buttons to enable<br />

and disable various peak detection options. When an option is<br />

enabled, the window also allows you to modify the setting<br />

details for that peak detection option. All enabled options will<br />

be displayed on the chromatogram.<br />

Note: You can select up to two peak detection options<br />

(excluding the External option). If using two options, such as<br />

1 with 2, PeakTrak considers a peak to be present when<br />

either option is true (a logical OR).<br />

• 1 and 2 (wavelength 1 and 2) — Enable these<br />

options to use and configure primary and secondary<br />

wavelength detection. When enabled, type or select the<br />

peak detection wavelength in nanometers, then click the<br />

Details button to configure additional settings described<br />

below.<br />

• Slope Based — Select this option to enable<br />

Slope-based peak detection. When enabled, peaks will<br />

be recorded if the slope algorithm indicates a peak<br />

within the Peak Width setting.<br />

• Peak Width — Select the average peak width<br />

setting. Peak widths are measured at the baseline.<br />

The slope detector will detect peak widths ranging<br />

from about 0.2 to 2 times the peak width setting. For<br />

example, if you entered a peak width of 1 minute, the<br />

range would be 12 seconds to 2 minutes. For best<br />

operation, the peak width should be set to just over<br />

the average peak width being separated. For<br />

instance, if the average peak width is 45 seconds, you<br />

should enter a peak width of 1 minute. For most flash<br />

chromatography, 1 minute is a good starting point for<br />

a peak width.<br />

• Threshold Detection — Select this option to enable<br />

Threshold peak detection. When enabled, peaks will<br />

be recorded if the Absorbance Units (AU) value is<br />

exceeded.<br />

• Threshold — Type or select the Absorbance Units<br />

value to be used for Threshold detection.<br />
