From the menu bar, select Collect > Experiment Setup > Bench and set the parameters indicated in the table for your instrument:
| Instrument | Velocity | Gain | Aperture Size | Transmission Accessory in sample compartment | Expected interferogram height |
| iS5 | 0.4747 | 1 | 100 | iD1 | 7.0-8.0 Volts max |
| iS10 | 0.4747 | 1 | Open | SMART Omni | 7.0-9.0 Volts max |
| iS20 | 0.4747 | 1 | Open | SMART Omni | 5.0-9.0 Volts max |
| iS50 (default Main Experiment file) | 0.4747 | 1 | 230 | None | 8.0 Volts max top DTGS KBr detector amplitude |
| iS50 Built-In ATR (KBr Beamsplitter) | 0.4747 | 1 | 230 | NA | 1.5 to 2.5 Volts Max |
| iS50 Built-In ATR (Solid Substrate Beamsplitter) | 0.4747 | 8 | 230 | NA | 1.0 to 4.0 Volts Max |
| Nicolet 380 | 0.4747 | 1 | Open | None | 8.0-9.0 Volts max |
| Nicolet 6700 | 0.6329 | 1 | 100 | None | 6.5-8.0 Volts max or better for DTGS detector |
| Summit / Summit Pro / Summit Lite / Summit X | 0.4747 | 1 | 100 | iD1 | 7.0-8.0 Volts max |
