Purpose
The purpose of this app is to allow Origin user search, find and add new fitting functions to Origin. Simply select the function and click a button to download the FDF file and add the function to Origin, then find and use it when perform fitting.
Basic Usage
Note: Please keep your computer network running smoothly, or this app won’t run properly.
Open
Fitting Function Library
from
App Gallery
.
This App needs to download the necessary image files of sample curve and formula from
Origin
server when you open it for the first time. So if you find this app is initializing, expect a bit of a delay.
Click to select the function as desired from the table. The sample curve, model expression, keywords and note will be displayed in the lower panel in the meantime.
Move the mouse over sample curve or model expression to see a large image.
Same as usual, enter
Ctrl
or
Shift
then click to select multiple functions.
Click
Download
button to add the selected functions to Origin. Note that the FDF files and related DLL files will be downloaded from Origin server and save in .
Options and Hints
Search box
: enter function name, category or keyword to narrow down the candidate functions.
Green Tick
: the green tick shows if this function has been added to Origin or not.
Category filter
: select one of the categories from the drop-down to filter functions.
Request a Function button
: click to open a webpage and fill the form to ask for a new fitting function.
Please provide the detailed info for the requested function in the form, includes
function name
,
parameters
(better with the bounds values for parameters if they have),
formula
,
background
and
reference
.
Add to User-Defined Category
checkbox: the selected function will be also added to User-Defined category other than its own categories if this checkbox is checked.
Messages Log hint
: this app will print out the message about the added functions and their categories in
Messages Log
window after clicking
Add to Origin
button.
Auto-update
This app will update the function list automatically if Origin provides some new functions even after installation.
If the functions that have been added to Origin are updated, this app will allow user to select whether to update the source of functions from the server to the local workspace or not.
Function List
This app provides more than twenty fitting functions, including convolution of a Gaussian function and a two-phase exponential decay function, modified diode or solar cell equation with series and shunt resistance using Lambert W function, convolution of a Doniach Sunjic function and a Gaussian function, cross-WLF viscosity model, stretched exponential function, Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka equation, modified Arrhenius equation and so on.
All fitting functions that this app contains are listed

Hi CathyDC,
After you download the function, you can open "Fitting Function Organizer" to check these functions which are under the "User Defined" category. Also, you can update them in the "Fitting Function Organizer" or "Fitting Function Builder".
Thanks,
