9.3  Analog Output 
 
For connection, use the analog output terminal.    Select the Analog 
Output command from the Utility menu.    (The analog output I/F (option) 
is required.)

This is a setting of data value corresponding to analog output of 1 V. 
Analog output value (V) becomes as follows. 
 
Low :  (data value)/1000 
High :  (data  value)/10000

APPENDIX A    DETAILS OF QUANTIFICATION   
 
A.1  Foreword 
 
In the Photometry mode of the F-7000 spectrophotometer, the following 
four calibration curve types are available. 
 
  Linear working curve 
  Quadratic working curve 
  Cubic working curve 
  Multiple segment working curve 
 
These are explained in detail below. 
 
 
A.2    Linear Working Curve (1st order) 
 
A regression line is determined via the least squares method from a 
maximum of 20 data.    The calculation formula is as...

A.3    Quadratic Working Curve (2nd order) 
 
A quadratic curve is determined via the least squares method from a 
maximum of 20 data.    The calculation formula is as follows:

A.5    Multiple Segment Working Curve (Segmented) 
 
The calibration curve is apt to bend when measuring turbid samples or 
the like.    Use of a quantification program allows correcting the 
calibration curve by using up to 20 standards.    Figure A-1 shows an 
example of curve correction.    For the part which exceeds the 
measuring range of the standards, simply extend the line as it is.

＜Notes on Preparation of Multiple Segment Working Curve> 
(1)  A correct calibration curve can be created only when the 
measured value increases or decreases monotonically versus the 
concentration value.    Especially when the inclination is negative-
going, be sure to measure a blank having a data value larger than 
the other standards.    A curve not showing a monotonic increase 
will appear as in Fig. A-2.    And when the data value of the blank 
is small, regardless of a negative-going...

(2)  Remeasurement of Standards 
 
The standards can be remeasured after once preparing a 
calibration curve.    The curve prepared in such a case will appear 
as in Fig. A-4.

APPENDIX B  DETAILS OF RATE ANALYSIS 
FUNCTION 
 
B.1  Foreword 
 
Rate analysis is used in the analysis of enzyme reactions.    It is utilized 
for clinical and biochemical tests by reagent manufacturers, hospitals 
and so on.    A computer is used to calculate the concentration from the 
variation in data per unit time, and the result is displayed and printed out. 
 
 
B.2  Calculation Method 
 
A timing chart for rate analysis is shown in Fig. B-1.    Data is acquired 
when the initial delay...
