Getting Started 5 Tour through the Clarity station
5.1.3 Data Acquisition window
l In the Instrument window, look at the Status line (see Fig 10 on pg 17.).
The acquisition is now signaled by the RUNNING state and the actual run
time shown there.
l To see the data acquisition in process and possibly control it, use the Data
Acquisition icon (see Fig 10 on pg 17.) to enter the Data Acquisition
window.
l Depending on your station's configuration, one or more signals may be
displayed. The number of detectors (signals) and their names can be
seen in the upper right corner of the graph .
Fig 12: Data Acquisition window
l In the Status bar on the bottom of the Data Acquisition window, the time of
the analysis can be seen, as well as the signal for each detector and
its units.
l
The Stop and Abort icons allow you to cancel the analysis. If it is
stopped, Clarity will save all the data acquired so far and cancel the
analysis. Abort cancels the acquisition without saving any data.
l
The Snapshot icon creates the preview of already measured data.
After clicking on it, the Chromatogram window will open with the
chromatogram file corresponding to the part of the data already measured
(more information on the Chromatogram window can be found in the
chapter "Chromatogram window" on pg 22.). If the Snapshot
chromatogram is to be preserved, it must be saved under a different
name, as it would be overwritten by the real chromatogram at the end of
the analysis.
l After 7 minutes 30 seconds (the time set in the template method used for
the measurement), the analysis will automatically stop and the
Chromatogram window will open.
