1. Prepare the thermal analysis results. The input .txt file should contain the following quantities - temperature, time and conversion degree (i.e., integral signal) or conversion rate data (i.e., differential signal), or the experimental signals that give conversion data. Define the file details (separators, column numbers etc.) in the left block and upload the file.

2. Correct the baseline for DSC data, define the mass loss range for TGA data using the right block. Note, that the number of points to which the data will be thin-out (shown in "Advanced" tab) is set globally, i.e., after applying to the first file it will be used for others in the project. Usually, after the exclusion of the unimportant regions far from the process (using the "Drop X lines" parameters) the interested region is adequately represented by 1000-2000 points. Control visually the data after all manipulations over the original data in the first plot.

3. Go to "Kinetic project" tab to see the conversion degree data prepared for loading to kinetic project. If necessary, smooth the data (again controlling the adequacy over the original data on the first plot). Press "Add file to project" button after all treatment and upload the data for the next experiment.

4. Once all files are in the project (more than four experiments is recommended by ICTAC Kinetic committee! ) download the resulting file (contains the runs that are selected) pressing the "Export kinetic data". Enjoy your coffee and move to the kinetic analysis.
