How to setup and use a temperature script

This requires temperature controller to be interfaced with OLIS SpectralWorks. 

On the repeated scans tab in OLIS SpectralWorks select the Temperature Script Option from the “Repeated Scans as a function” of dropdown.

Use the browse button to navigate out to the folder where the temperature script files are stored.

Click Edit/Print Script to make changes to the script:

[Type]

Temperature

[Comment]

Comment Section.

Any amount of text and/or white space may be put into the Comment Section.

Any comments outside of the comment section (line comments) MUST be preceded with a semi-colon, and all text following a semi-colon on a single line is ignored.

Scriptfiles are divided into different sections by section headers (header names enclosed in square brackets).  Section headers must start in the first column, and no other data, including comments, can follow them.

Different types of scripts will contain different sections.  The only sections guaranteed to be in every script file are Type and Scans.  A comment section is optional but can also be placed in any script file.
