Using Melt Graphs 91Appendix CUsing Melt GraphsMelt GraphsIn order to provide a real-time display of the changes detected by the digital camera, agraphical representation of the “melting process vs. temperature” can be plotted duringthe analysis.The plots (referred to as Melt Graphs) are a simplistic representation of the meltingprocess calculated by the digital image processor, and are stored in memory as part ofeach final report. Melt Graphs can be displayed during and after a melt on the front panelof the instrument or on a computer screen (using the MeltView software and USBconnection to a host computer). The Digital Image Processor uses the calculated MeltGraphs to detect onset, meniscus and clear points based on user-programmable thresholds(i.e. Onset%, Clear% and Single%) stored in the <strong>OptiMelt</strong>’s internal memory.Melt Graphs are generic plots, routinely used to review the changes observed by thecamera during a test, and to fine tune automation parameters (i.e. detection thresholds) tobetter match visual and automated determinations. Melt Graphs are also appended to allprinted reports for GLP validation of your analysis results.<strong>OptiMelt</strong> <strong>Automated</strong> <strong>Melting</strong> <strong>Point</strong> <strong>System</strong>
