2.1.5. Library Designer
For identity checking at goods receipt, it is not always necessary to apply chemometric procedures such
as cluster analysis or SIMCA. Often, a direct comparison of spectra will also produce unambiguous results
directly and require fewer reference samples than in chemometric models. With the aid of the Library
Designer, it is possible to create and manage the necessary spectral libraries. On the basis of existing
spectra, any number of libraries can be created which can be interlinked to allow spectra to be compared.
The Library Designer enables you to select from ten different algorithms for spectral comparison and to
define the acceptance criteria to ensure optimal matching to your specific task. At the push of a button,
you can perform internal and external validations of the libraries.

NIRWare Operator
All measurements are performed using the NIRWare Operator. Its user interface can be tailored to user
specific needs. The integrated standard operating procedures guides users through the application. In the
routine mode, only a few sample-specific entries are required, which may also be entered using a barcode
reader. The results are displayed directly in the report format on the monitor. Even users with little PC
experience will be able to use this software after just a short introduction
Additionally there are tools for instrument tests implemented.
