What is the difference between standard lamps and coded lamps?

A. The only difference is that a coded lamp allows the newer Atomic Absorption Spectrometer instruments to recognise the lamp. ie the instrument automatically knows the lamp is a Copper lamp with a wavelength set to 324.8nm etc, while a standard lamp will not be recognised. This is not totally necessary and is mainly used for automation i.e. overnight runs.
