To Create a Method
To create a basic method, you will access the method
parameters using the 4 component keys, in order: [Temps],
[Times], [Vial], and [Carrier]. For a listing of commonly- used
parameters, see “Method Parameter Summary”.
1 When the HS is not processing samples, press [Temps]. The
display shows the current oven, loop/valve, and transfer
line temperature setpoints and actual temperatures.
a Scroll to Oven.
b Use the keypad to enter the new oven setpoint, then

d Enter the desired Transfer line temperature, then press
[Enter].
Temperature setting is complete.
2 Press [Time].
a Scroll to GC cycle time.
b Use the keypad to enter the new GC cycle time, then
press [Enter]. To determine the correct value to input,
see “To Determine the GC Cycle Time”.
c Enter the desired Vial equib time, then press [Enter].
d Enter the desired Pres equib time, then press [Enter].
e Enter the desired Inject time, then press [Enter].
Time setting is complete.
3 Press [Vial].
a Scroll to Fill mode.
b Press [Mode/Type] to display the selections for the vial
fill mode. Scroll to the desired fill mode, then press
[Enter].
