Introduction to WinPulse
™
This chapter describes the features of the WinPulse software developed by OI
Analytical to set up and optimize all of the PFPDs operating parameters. WinPulse
is Windows-based and allows the operator to easily observe the amplitude and
lifetime of the chemiluminescence emissions resulting from the combustion of the
analyte in the PFPD. The following gives an overview of the main screen, the
menu features, and the secondary screens contained in WinPulse.
Overview of Main WinPulse Screen
The Main Screen consists of a menu bar, the chemiluminescence signal, and
several screen manipulation and data recording features along the right and bottom
of the screen (see Figure 3.1). The functions of the elements of the menu bar are
described in the section below.
The toolbar at the top of the screen allows the operator to perform eight operations.
These include file opening, saving, and printing. The Gate Parameters, Board/
Channel Parameters, and Timed Events screens are accessed by clicking on the
,
, and
buttons, respectively. The
button accesses the run log of
all operations performed in WinPulse. The last button provides access to the Help
