2D Spectrum

1. Overview
   
2. Start the program
   
3. Orient yourself
   
4. Convert Varian’s fid to an NMRPipe fid
   
5. Read in the NMRPipe-format 2D fid.
   
6. Process the first increment
   
7. Edit the script “process2d.com”
   
8. Execute the script “process2d.com”
   
9. Read the spectrum “test.ft” in the NMRPipe GUI
   
10. Phase the F1 dimension
    
11. Edit the script “process2d.com” again
    
12. Re-run the script “process2d.com”
    
13. Convert the NMRPipe file “test.ft” to NMRView format
    
14. You’re done!
    

Processing 3D Data

1. Convert the data
   
2. Process & phase the first plane.
   
3. 3D processing with 2 scripts, LP in 15N only
