1 00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:12,633 Hello, I'm Alex Thurston. 2 00:00:12,633 --> 00:00:17,033 And today I will show you two very useful features in the Vanta Menu Tray 3 00:00:17,033 --> 00:00:20,000 Method Display and Element Order. 4 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,433 The Vanta has the ability to customize the data display, 5 00:00:23,433 --> 00:00:27,700 to show relevant information that you need quickly for your operation. 6 00:00:27,700 --> 00:00:29,433 Understanding these features 7 00:00:29,433 --> 00:00:34,166 can help clearly display information for the user. 8 00:00:34,166 --> 00:00:40,500 Once logged in, select the “Method Display” icon in the menu tray. 9 00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:43,466 On this screen, a number of buttons display, 10 00:00:43,466 --> 00:00:46,833 where you can toggle information to show on screen. 11 00:00:46,833 --> 00:00:49,333 When show chemistry is unchecked, 12 00:00:49,333 --> 00:00:56,833 the chemistry results will be removed from the display during a test. 13 00:00:56,833 --> 00:00:58,466 When used with an Alloy method, 14 00:00:58,466 --> 00:01:01,333 only the identified grade name will display. 15 00:01:01,333 --> 00:01:03,866 Some customers like using this option 16 00:01:03,866 --> 00:01:07,100 when they are doing manufacturing grade verification. 17 00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:09,466 In addition, on the method display screen, 18 00:01:09,466 --> 00:01:12,066 When show chemistry button is unchecked, 19 00:01:12,066 --> 00:01:14,866 you will see the rest of the selection buttons grey out 20 00:01:14,866 --> 00:01:18,566 as their functions are tied to the chemistry display. 21 00:01:18,566 --> 00:01:21,100 The next selection, show uncertainty, 22 00:01:21,100 --> 00:01:22,800 when it is unchecked, 23 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:32,600 it will remove the uncertainty values from the results screen. 24 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,066 In order to re-enable the uncertainties on the display screen 25 00:01:36,066 --> 00:01:39,600 go into method display, select show uncertainty 26 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,333 and the uncertainites are again displayed. 27 00:01:42,333 --> 00:01:45,100 When show estimated LOD is unchecked, 28 00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:48,200 the elements with results lower than detection limits 29 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,566 for the test will not be displayed. 30 00:01:50,566 --> 00:01:53,466 When you check the show estimated LOD button 31 00:01:53,466 --> 00:01:56,300 on the results display screen 32 00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:59,533 any elements that are below these thresholds 33 00:01:59,533 --> 00:02:01,466 will be displayed. 34 00:02:01,466 --> 00:02:04,333 Checking the show estimated LOD is a great way 35 00:02:04,333 --> 00:02:07,033 to determine if a specific element is detected 36 00:02:07,033 --> 00:02:09,866 above a specific threshold during a test. 37 00:02:09,866 --> 00:02:12,900 Now to talk about the one item in Method Display 38 00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:17,400 that is common across all methods, Display nSigma. 39 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,200 This feature controls the uncertainty multiplier 40 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,333 when uncertainties are displayed. 41 00:02:22,333 --> 00:02:26,766 And you can select 1, 2 or 3 42 00:02:26,766 --> 00:02:29,266 depending on the range of uncertainties 43 00:02:29,266 --> 00:02:32,533 that you want applied to the result onscreen. 44 00:02:32,533 --> 00:02:35,766 In addition, some methods will have additional buttons. 45 00:02:35,766 --> 00:02:40,466 such as Geochem, Soil, Car Catalyst and Precious Metals. 46 00:02:40,466 --> 00:02:42,266 In the Geochem method 47 00:02:42,266 --> 00:02:45,166 in method display, there is an option 48 00:02:45,166 --> 00:02:47,533 for show userfactor name. 49 00:02:47,533 --> 00:02:49,500 This button must be selected 50 00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:52,633 when you are applying user factors to a test 51 00:02:52,633 --> 00:02:56,400 and want the user factor name to display on the screen. 52 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,666 Uncheck this button to remove the notification on the screen. 53 00:03:00,666 --> 00:03:04,733 For Precious Metals method in method display 54 00:03:04,733 --> 00:03:07,266 you will see show plate alert 55 00:03:07,266 --> 00:03:10,366 to warn you if testing indicates possible gold plating 56 00:03:10,366 --> 00:03:13,633 and you will also see the show Au Karat options. 57 00:03:13,633 --> 00:03:16,866 To remove the plate alert notifications from the screen, 58 00:03:16,866 --> 00:03:21,200 uncheck the show plate alert button. 59 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,466 To change the Au Karating display form, 60 00:03:24,466 --> 00:03:27,333 select fineness or AuKarat, 61 00:03:27,333 --> 00:03:30,566 or none depending on your desired display. 62 00:03:30,566 --> 00:03:33,666 Once we’ve got the display components set in method display, 63 00:03:33,666 --> 00:03:36,833 we can use element order to configure which elements 64 00:03:36,833 --> 00:03:40,300 that we want to see and the order that they display. 65 00:03:40,300 --> 00:03:42,500 This is useful if you have one or two elements 66 00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:45,866 of interest to bring to the top of the display order. 67 00:03:45,866 --> 00:03:49,833 The default order of the elelmnts is by increasing atomic number 68 00:03:49,833 --> 00:03:52,200 as shown on the periodic table. 69 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,333 In order to display elements that are relevant for analyses, 70 00:03:55,333 --> 00:04:01,300 deselect any element that is not needed. 71 00:04:01,300 --> 00:04:04,966 To change the order in which elements are displayed in the results 72 00:04:04,966 --> 00:04:09,066 click, hold and drag up or down 73 00:04:09,066 --> 00:04:13,366 to the desired spot in the list. 74 00:04:13,366 --> 00:04:15,733 And with that, our method display is set up 75 00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:18,433 to our criteria and we are ready to begin testing. 76 00:04:18,433 --> 00:04:20,533 I hope this video was informative for you 77 00:04:20,533 --> 00:04:22,100 and I thank you for watching.
