 The Slope and Intercept values describe a relation of the bottom micrometer step movement to the top micrometer step movement. The top micrometer movement per wavelength is determined by the dispersion file in use by the instrument.
-Note: This standard operating procedure (SOP) is based on using Brewer Test Plots program (GA tab) to process a series of GA files, complete with the dispersion in use to collect an average Slope and intercept value.  Only if the Slope or intercept value has changed significantly is any change applied.
