Sequence - Automating Analyses
You can use the Sequence screen to create completely automatic unattended
analyses, from sample preparation to injection. The Sequence screen is accessed
by pressing Sequence in the Welcome screen.
Figure 58 Sequence - Start-up screen
Using the Sequence screen, you can link several methods together. For example,
you can first run a method containing an injector program to do sample
preparation followed by an analytical run to analyze a batch of samples. You can
then run a second method to analyze further samples with different analytical
conditions.
When the second method is loaded, it waits for a specified time before starting
the analysis, allowing the column to equilibrate to the new conditions. All
sequence events can be traced in the Logbook available from the Welcome
screen.
If additional details are required on a specific topic/function/parameter not
mentioned in this document, please use the Instant Pilot’s Online Information
System (i), see “The i (info) key - Online Information System” on page 23.
