Interpolate
 – Once you have performed a curve 
fit, you can use the Interpolate function to read 
values off of the fitted function. Choose 
Interpolate from the Analyze menu to enable the 
tool, then tap on the graph. The lines associated 
with the Examine cursor now locate a position 
on the fitted function, and coordinates along the 
fitted line are shown in the summary box at the 
right of the graph. You can tell that LabQuest is 
in the Interpolation mode by the square cursor 
shown at the Examine point. 
 
 
Model
 –Model allows you to manually fit a 
chosen function to your data. Enabling the 
Model tool displays a Model dialog box where 
you can choose the desired model equation from 
the drop-down menu.  
 
The model parameters (e.g., A, B and C) are 
adjustable. Change them by direct entry or by 
using the up and down arrows. Upon choosing 
the equation, LabQuest will display the modeled 
function in the preview graph at left. Tap OK to keep this function and display the 
modeled function on the Graph screen. To exit the Model tool without applying the 
function, tap Cancel. 
 
Tip: If no function appears when modeling, your parameters are defining a curve that is 
outside of the plot window. 
 
 
Advanced
 – Choosing Advanced from the 
Analyze menu allows you to access advanced 
analysis tools including Baseline Adjustment, 
Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), and Peak 
Integration. 
 
Baseline Adjustment
 – This tool applies 
a factor that raises or lowers the x-axis. 
Because the LabQuest App uses the x-
axis as its baseline when calculating an 
integral, adjusting the baseline may 
result in a better integral. 
 
FFT
 – The FFT tool calculates a Fast 
Fourier Transform of the selected data.  
The FFT is displayed in a special graph 
that can be analyzed. Tap OK to return to 
the main graph. The peak frequency will 
be displayed on the graph legend..
