3.4 Stopping a Run
To stop a run before the end of the method, press STOP. This stops the run and
displays the
ABORT screen (see Figure 3-16).
Move the cursor to the preferred option and press
ENTER.
• ABORT METHOD—cancels the method. If necessary, a purge is done to remove
solvent from the sample. Then, residual pressure is relieved from the system.
• CONTINUE METHOD—resumes the run from the point at which the STOP
button was pressed.
Runs Stopped Automatically
The ASE 150 contains built-in diagnostics and sensors that continuously monitor
the system. Under certain conditions (for example, if the collection vessel
becomes too full or if the hydrocarbon vapor level exceeds the upper limit), the
system will automatically stop a run. If this occurs, the ASE 150 screen will
display an error message; the message will remain on-screen until you press a
button to clear it or until it is replaced by another error message. For a list of error
messages (and corrective action to take), see Section 4.1
.
NOTE After a run is stopped (whether manually or
automatically), rinse the system before resuming
operation. For instructions on how to run a rinse cycle,
see Section 3.5
.
