autogain & differential sed
autogain & differential sedimentation
In the discussion about differential sedimentation
Geoff Howlett and Tom Laue have both mentioned
the desirability of disabling the adjustment of the
photomultiplier voltage to maintain a constant
signal in the reference channel (the "autogain").
My understanding is that this feature is already
disabled (mostly) when you run the XL-A in
"continuous" scan mode, which is normal for
velocity runs anyway. That is, for continuous
scans the photomultiplier is adjusted only for the
first data point for each scan, and not thereafter.
Therefore, in a differential sedimentation run there
would be no problem as long as the first point is
above the meniscus.
