User Guide to the Jb95 Spectral Fitting Program

F. Importing simulated line sets generated using other programs
It is possible to import simulated stick spectra generated from other programs to access quantum numbers, make assignments and compare convoluted spectra with experiment data. In the SIMULATIONS CONTROL DIALOG, select a simulation channel and enter a new FILENAME. Depress the READ ASCII button to locate and open the ASCII line set file. You are then prompted with a series of questions beginning with:

FORMAT WITH FREQUENCY + INTENSITY ONLY?

FORMAT WITH 8 QUANTUM NUMBERS?

FORMAT WITH 6 QUANTUM NUMBERS?

FORMAT FOR ASYROT?

Answering NO brings up the next question. Answering YES will convert the ASCII file according to the format selected and generate a new binary simulation. The ASCII file must conform to one of the following formats with each field separated by a least one space, comma,etc.

FORMAT WITH FREQUENCY + INTENSITY ONLY:
calc. freq. calc. intensity
10618.0 0.1022

FORMAT WITH 8 QUANTUM NUMBERS:
