and the sequence run list has been defined (remember data will not be
collected for rinse vials).

This will now change to Autosampler Online and the sequence will begin. You
can follow the status of the run sequence in the software.

Autosampler Online button.
The software will then prompt you to select a new start vial if the sequence
is restarted.

tool on the Control software once you have defined the autosampler sequence).
