Title: Calculate Projected Detection Limits
Post by: Ben Buse on May 03, 2016, 07:37:59 AM
Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help. How do you get "Calculate Projected detection limits" to work I've checked it & "calc detection limits & sensitivity" but I can't see the projections in the log window. Any ideas what I doing wrong I'm sure I'm missing something - I remember we had this on a ancient version of Probe for Windows. I ask because I havn't time to enter the information into my excel spreadsheet to calculate it

Thanks

Ben

Hi Ben,
Odd, it works for me (see below).

I think you have to have at least two or three data points?

Thanks John yes I was trying it for a single point when I do it for 3 points it works  :)
