The new data concept as outlined in the previous chapters provides a
number of advantages:
• Sequence data are not overwritten. Each sequence acquisition stores the
resulting data files in its own sequence container with unique name.
• With the sequence container concept, the data are stored with all
necessary information needed for data analysis, i.e. copies of the
sequence file and of all methods employed with the sequence. These
methods can be changed with sequence specific input and do not
influence the original master method. The container concept thus
strengthens the meaning of a sequence as a set of data files and
methods belonging together for result creation.
• Data review and reprocessing are both available in Data Analysis view via
the Navigation Table.
• The data container concept provides the optimal preconditions for the
ChemStation OpenLAB Option, allowing to exchange data with the
Agilent OpenLAB Enterprise Content Manager (ECM).
However, there may be situations where users may want to store their
data as in ChemStation B.01.03 or earlier and work according to the
corresponding workflows:
• During method development it may be more convenient to have only
one method for both acquisition and data analysis to automatically have
changes available for future acquisition and reanalysis of already
acquired data.
• Data from several acquisitions have to be in one folder, e.g. in case of
partial acquisition.
• Customized macro solutions on a ChemStation system that have been
designed for older revisions may require the data, methods, or sequence
to be stored according to the old data organization scheme.
• When ChemStation B.04.01 runs in a lab where there are also system
still running on ChemStation revisions B.01.03 or earlier, it may be
more convenient to use the same data organization mode on all
systems.
