Synchronizing Analyses with External Devices
With an APG remote connector the system can be connected to external devices in
order to synchronize the analyses. This is necessary when an external device needs
some time in order to get ready for a new analysis and when transmitting of a start
request is required (see “Connecting External Devices” on page 51 for further
information on interfaces).
When executing an analysis by pressing the Start button [F8] you will see a window
where sequence modes can be chosen.
In any case, do all the analysis preparation using the control module.
NOTE A “Start” command is used to start the analytical run from the point of injection and
is usually issued by the autosampler.
A “Start Request” command causes the autosampler to take the next vial and place it
under the injection needle (also see “APG Remote” on page 51 and “Optimizing
Autosampler Performance” on page 77)
The “Start button” [F8] on the control module is used to start a vial range or sequence
analysis.
Standard
In the standard mode the analysis is under the command of the control module. The
control module will issue a Start Request command to the autosampler as soon as all
modules are ready for the next analysis. The autosampler issues the Start command
at the point of injection. With an Agilent 1100 Autosampler integrated in the system
and no external devices this is the normal operation mode.
Send Single Start Request
After you start the analysis with the control module it will generate a single start
request on the APG remote lines. This allows to trigger the external device which
will start each injection by sending a start signal. The vial range or sequence will be
started by the control module, but for every new injection the external device must
give the start command.
