If the GC is not ready, you will see a Not Ready message at the top of the
screen. After the GC and AutoSampler come to a ready state, the Not Ready
message will change to Ready. To determine the individual ready states of the
components, you can see the top pull down menu under Windows and see the
states for the 4000, 3800, and Combi PAL modules. After all components are
ready, you can start an analysis.
An analysis can be run as a single sample or through an automated sequence.
•
To run a single sample, see “Injecting a Single Sample” on page 36.
•
To run in automation mode, see “Injecting Using a SampleList” on page
38.
Status and Control
Before an acquisition has been started, the Status and Control field is similar to
the following figure.
•
The Run Time is 0.00 minutes.
•
The End Time is the run length specified in the active method.
•
The Ready and No Fault lights are green.
Click the Start Acquisition button to override automation and start a run before
the system becomes Ready. However, the file name of a run started in this way
is named as 4000.x.sms, not the file name specified for automation runs.
Click the Edit Method button to open the Method Builder and modify the method.
You are prompted to re-activate the method after saving changes and are
returned to System Control.
NOTE: A change in the End Time for the MS module does not change the GC
End Time. You must access the GC module from the Windows pull-down menu
and change the GC End Time separately.
