Measurement
NOTE: Before executing System Self Test,the Water Jacketed 8-Position Multi-Cell Holder has to be installed first.
Otherwise, the instrument can be damaged electrically and do not operate properly.
1. Install the Water Jacketed 8-Position Multi-Cell Holder.
2. Close the sample compartment cover and turn on the instrument.
CAUTION
Do
not
start the UV Express software before finishing the initialization of grating.
NOTE: Start the System Self Test after warming up the system for at least 20 minutes.
3. Double-click on the UV Express Software folder and select one of the mode for starting.
4. The following message box will be shown. Empty the cell holder and close the lid firmly. Click OK.
5. System Self Test stars. Click OK after finishing the System Self Test.
6. Select New to open a new window. Select Experiment Type and select OK.
7. Open Method in the main menu.

8. ①Select the Accessory tab and ②Select Multi-cell on Accessory Type, and then click the
③Method Setup button to open the Multicell window.
9. Using the button, select cells to be used among the available cells list. Check (√) Multi
Baseline or Multi Zero, if it is required to use.
a. Available Cells: Indicate cells that are available for measurement.
b. Using Cells: Shows the cell positions which are selected for measurement. Remove cells
using key and switch positions using and keys.
c. Multicell Options
Multi Zero: If checked (√), zero will be measured all the selected positions. If not, zero will
be only measured at the 1st cell position among the using cells.
Multi Baseline: If checked (√), the baseline will be measured at each selected cell. If not
checked, the baseline is only measured at the 1st cell position among the using cells.
NOTE:
To prevent inadequate baseline (zero) measurement because of the difference in transmittance among
cuvettes or any other reasons, Multi Baseline (Multi Zero) measurement is recommended.

10. Click OK.
11. After setting parameters for Experiment, Lamp, Internal Reference and Scan Setup, click
Apply and then select OK.
12. After placing the reference solution into the selected Using Cell positions and the reference cell
position of the Multicell holder, click the Baseline or Zero button to perform the Baseline or Zero
function.
NOTE:
Baseline is required to run only one time when the first measurement is done, not every measurement.
However, it should be done whenever the system is powered off/on, the wavelength is changed, SBW is
changed or Reference sample is changed.
13. Place the reference into the reference cell position and sample into the selected Using cell
positions
14. Select the Sample button to measure.
15. After the measurement is finished, the results are displayed in the result window. Save or print
the results as required.
Calibration of Multi-Cell Position
Calibrate the beam position of the Water Jacketed 8-Position Multi-Cell Holder when the Multicell is
installed for the first time or beam position is incorrect.
1. Execute Scan Setup mode and ①click the Accessory tab of Method window. ②Select Multi-
cell on Accessory Type, and then click the ③Method Setup button to open the Multicell
window.
