Datasheet
5 Tour through the Clarity station Clarity
calibration (or its recalibration, if there already were any data in the
calibration).
l The Method Name column sets the template method used for
measuring the sample. The Report Style column sets the print style
used for reporting the measurement. Each row can have its own template
method and report style; it is thus possible to measure according to
several template methods in one sequence.
l In the File Name column , the name of the resulting chromatogram file is
specified. It is possible to use variable parameters to form the
chromatogram filename, for example %Q means that the file name will
use the text from the Sample field. It is possible to combine several of
these variables with plain text or symbols to create a unique file name for
each chromatogram. The complete set of available variables can be seen
after clicking the field and selecting the icon.
l
To check the sequence, press the icon . Clarity station will change
all symbols at the beginning of the row to or issue an error message
listing what should be corrected on which row to be able to proceed.
Note: Try to make a mistake and check the sequence once more. For example,
on the row 3, change the text in the Sample column to Std_1 and press
the icon. A warning message appears telling that there are two rows
which would produce chromatogram with the same file name. Also, the
symbol at the beginning of rows 1 and 3 will change to and holding the
mouse above either field will display the tooltip with the cause of the
problem. Set the sequence back to its original state and continue to the
next step.
l
Start measuring the sequence using the icon . The state of the
ACTIVE sequence will change to WAITING FOR READY and as soon as
the Ready signal from the autosampler is detected, the measurement will
start.
Note: Even if the autosampler is not connected, the Clarity DEMO will get the
Ready signal, thus starting the sequence. However, it is not possible to
generate separate DEMO data for each chromatogram, so all
chromatograms would be the same. There are examples of the resulting
files in the project folder. You may stop or abort the sequence now or later
either from the Data Acquisition window or directly from the Sequence
window. Close the Sequence window before proceeding.
l After the first row of the Sequence table (controlling one analysis) is
measured, the Instrument will once again switch to the WAITING FOR
READY state and the autosampler will start a new measurement by
sending the Ready signal. Stop the sequence from the Data Acquisition
window or Sequence window at any time by pressing the Abort button
