Basic Anasazi Proton NMR Tutorial
This is the bare minimum you need to know to run the NMR and generate a spectrum.
An important point is that while a program window can be in the foreground -- it may not be the
active window. The active window is the one with the highlighted or colored 'Title bar' at the
top of the window. A window must be active in order to enter keyboard commands in it.
KEYBOARD COMMAND SYNTAX:
These are shorthand notation for keystroke sequences that perform specific functions in either W95 or the programs running on W95. There are many such keystroke sequences that allow you to run most program commands without having to use the mouse. These are usually called 'keyboard shortcuts' and allow you to access menu commands very quickly using only keystrokes. The keyboard shortcuts are given by the underlined letters in each menu name or each command name in the menus. Examples are given below:
Alt_V_R
Press the 'Alt' key and release it, then press the 'v' key and release it, then press the 'r' key and release it. This sequence activates the menu bar commands in the NUTS program, selects the 'View' pulldown menu and invokes the 'Show All Reals' command.
Alt-Tab
Press and hold the 'Alt' key, then press the 'Tab' key, then release both keys. This brings up a menu that lets you switch between programs running in W95. Holding the 'Alt' key and repeatedly pressing the 'Tab' key cycles through all of the running programs. Note that 'Alt-Tab' does not always result in an active window, but clicking on the window does.
A1
Press the 'a' key and release it, then press the '1' key and release it. This executes the 'A1' link in the NUTS program window. Note that NUTS commands must not be followed by 'Enter'.
Ctrl-F1
Press the 'Ctrl' key and hold it, then press the 'F1' function key (across the top of the keyboard), then release both keys. This executes the aii_proc.mac automatic data processing macro in the NUTS program window.
