Software-hardware complex GSH-3 is designed for verification of analog and digital measurement channels of chromatograph and analog-to-digital converters (ADC) (АЦП), designed for automation of old chromatographs. The device can be used in various sectors of the economy, in factory and research laboratories.

The hardware and software complex includes an electronic unit for analog signals reproduction and a computer program for the formation and recording of standard chromatograms.
The standard chromatogram signal is generated in the generator program on a personal computer (PC) and displayed as a graph on the monitor screen. Then the received signal is recorded in digital form into the electronic unit of the generator GSH-3 via RS-232C interface. The duration of the stored chromatogram can be set by the customer.
The generator program allows:
- Create up to 10 peaks with a specified retention time, width, and asymmetry.
- To overlay the noise on the signal with the specified amplitude and frequency.
- To overlay emissions with a given height, width and frequency on the signal.
- To overlay drift of the baseline on the signal.
- Save the generated chromatogram as a file, print and export to text and CDF formats.
The electronic unit GSH-3 is equipped with a control interface implemented on the body of the device. The electronic unit operates independently from the mains 220V, 50Hz. The device GSH-3 reproduces a digital signal recorded in ROM, with a given sampling rate and a given bit, in one voltage range and two current ranges. Signal output is done simultaneously on all three channels.
