Hi Jing,

Thanks for your post here!

The power is normalized with respect to the excitation power.

The correct file format looks like below:

! File Format:

! L1:    N, M, U

! L2:    EXW1, EXW2, ..., EXWM   

! L3:    EMW1, P1, P2, ..., PM

! L4:    EMW2, P1, P2, ..., PM

! L2+N:  EMWN, P1, P2, ..., PM

!

! Where:

! N = Number of emission wavelengths

! M = Number of excitation wavelengths

! U = Wavelength unit flag (1=nm, ???)

! EXWi = Excitation wavelength i

! EMWi = Emission wavelength i

! Pi = Normalized power for EXWi
