(4)  When automatic saving is set, data will be saved after 
completion of measurement.    Upon opening its file, a data 
processing window will appear as in Fig. 3-12.     
Although a peak table can be displayed, simultaneous 
display of rate calculation (kinetics) result and peak table 
cannot be selected.    Fig. 3-12 shows a spectrum and the 
result of rate calculation.    This is selectable from the View 
menu.    Unless automatic saving is set, select the Save As 
command from the File menu...

3.6    Calculating the Phosphorescence Life   
 
This is the function for calculating phosphorescence life from the 
measurement result (phosphorescence attenuation curve).   
Replacing data value at T1 with I
0, I0/e time (T2) is found, and T1, 
T2 and τ (phosphorescence life) = T2 - T1 are displayed.   
Select the phosphorescence life command from the data (D) 
menu or click the          button on the Processing toolbar.     
A window as in Fig. 3-15 will appear.

For scale expansion, specify the area to be enlarged with the 
mouse.  
Draw a rectangle with the mouse button held down as shown in 
Fig. 3-17.
