Use the Peak Detection page to identify and integrate the chromatogram peaks in an active chromatogram plot by specifying a peak detection algorithm. When using the ICIS or Genesis algorithm, you can manually select the chromatographic time range that the application uses to determine the baseline noise level. For instructions on using the Peak Detection page, see Detection and integration of chromatographic peaks.

The following table describes the parameters for the peak identification and detection algorithms.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Identification area |
|
Returned Peak | Types of peak detection results to be returned:
|
Expected Time (min) | Expected RT for the component. Available only when you specify the Returned peak as the Nearest or Highest peak. Range: 1 to 999 minutes. |
Window (sec) | RT window for the component. Available only when you specify the Returned peak as the Nearest or Highest peak. Range: 1 to 999 seconds. |
Component Name | Specifies the component name used for processing. Automatically imports the component name when a processing method is imported to the trace. |
Peak Detection Algorithm | |
Select Algorithm | Specifies the peak detection algorithm to be used for processing the chromatographic peaks.
