Current Sample

The current sample is, by definition, the last sample created by either the user or the automated procedures. This current sample is the only sample to which data can be acquired and appended to. However, the name and description may be altered easily in the Analyze! window. This is useful when the operator has made an incorrect guess as to the exact phase in a multiphase sample prior to data acquisition and analysis.

Note that wavescan samples can only have data acquired and appended to them once. Be sure that the current sample is the sample to which data should be appended to. Otherwise be sure to create a new sample using the New Sample button.
