DSC Calibration Wizard Constant & Temperature Run DSC Calibration Wizard Constant & Temperature Run This window allows you to enter the remainder of the experimental conditions for the Cell Constant calibration.
Follow the instructions on the calibration window using the information below as a guideline:
Conduct Experiment: This option allows you to determine whether you want to create a new Cell Constant experiment or use a previously stored run. If you check this box, you must complete the other entry fields on this window, including enter a data filename where the Cell Constant information will be stored. (This is the default selection.) If you do not check "Conduct Experiment," you must complete the "cell constant filename" field at the bottom of the window by selecting the filename of your previously stored cell constant experiment.
Start and Final Temperature/Heating Rate: The method parameters (e.g., start temperature, final temperature, and heating rate) for calibration are automatically entered by the software based on the metal standard selected on the previous window. For example, if indium is the calibration standard selected and the heating rate is 10°C/min, the start and final temperatures are automatically set to 100 and 180°C respectively. You can select to premelt your standard, prior to starting the experiment by using the Premelt option.
Data Filename: This field is active when "Conduct Experiment" is selected. Enter the filename for the location desired to store the Cell Constant information.
Purge Gas & Flow Rate: The purge gas and flow rate are automatically entered by the software based on selections made during Tzero calibration. The best results are obtained when all calibration runs, as well as subsequent runs on sample materials, are performed using the same experimental conditions (pan type, heating rate, and purge gas).
Post Test: Use this button to access the Post-Test condition parameters that allow you to specify the temperature window once the experiment is complete.
Once all of the experimental parameters are entered, press Next
to automatically start the cell constant experiment. For information on

If you click the Cancel button, the Calibration Wizard is terminated and the cell constant is reset to a value of 1.0.
