Processor can help you to efficiently convert raw spectral data from
various sources, import them into Chenomx spectra files
(.cnx
) and begin working with them.
For larger projects, you may want to import groups of spectra into
Chenomx spectra (.cnx
), processing them with a
consistent set of parameters to ensure consistent analysis
results.
How do I batch import spectra?
-
Start the Batch Import wizard.
-
Choose the source spectra to import. The source spectra must be in one of the supported file formats (“Spectral Data Processing”)
-
If the source spectra include multiple file types, select the type that you would like to import.
-
Choose the CSI and pH calibration options.
-
Choose the processing layers that you want to apply.
-
Specify a target folder for the imported spectra.
Tips and Tricks
-
If the source folder contains more than one type of spectrum file, you need to select one type to import in the current session, since different import options may apply to each available file type. You can do additional sessions to import other file types.
-
The import settings available through the Batch Import wizard are the same as those available when you import individual spectra (“Importing Spectra”).
-
Storing the imported spectra next to the source files means that each new spectrum file appears in the same folder as the spectrum file from which it was created. You may find it more useful to have Processor place the imported spectra into an entirely different folder.

When you finish processing a spectrum in Processor, your next task is often to start profiling the spectrum in Profiler. Send to Profiler closes the current spectrum in Processor, and re-opens it in Profiler.
Tips and Tricks
-
Any changes that you have made to the spectrum in Processor are retained when you send the spectrum to Profiler, and are visible if you bring the spectrum back into Processor. However, you still need to save the spectrum, either in Processor or Profiler, to permanently save those changes to the spectrum file.

Processor has the ability to export your spectrum into the JCAMP-DX file format, which can be imported into most NMR spectral processing software packages.
The effect of processing layers that you have applied to your spectrum will be retained in the exported JCAMP-DX file, but other analysis data such as compound fits and concentration will not.
