Carrier
The method settings for carrier gas change depending on the
configured carrier mode.
Loop final pressure If in Custom mode, set the final sample loop
pressure. If in Default mode, the final pressure
is displayed. See “Filling the sample loop” for
more information.
Loop equilibration If in Custom mode, default value: 0.05 minutes.
Vent after extraction Default: Yes. During an injection cycle that
starts a GC run, vent residual vial pressure.
Vial size Press [Mode/Type] to select.
Shaking Shaking is available in 9 levels. See Vial
shaking. Enter the value (1 through 9) directly, or
enter 0 to disable.

Parameter Comments
Pressure The current pressure reading. If in pressure
mode, also includes the column pressure
setpoint.
Flow The current flow rate. If in flow mode, also
includes the column flow setpoint.
Carrier Press [Mode/Type] to select the carrier gas
control mode:
• Pressure mode: Control the carrier gas
pressure, whether ramped or constant.
• Flow mode: Control the carrier gas flow,
whether ramped or constant.
Column temp The initial GC column temperature.
