3.11.4 Loading and Injecting Samples with an Autosampler
1. Verify that the autosampler output line is connected to port S (5) on
the injection valve. Direct the injection valve waste line as required
for the installed autosampler model.
For details about connecting an autosampler, refer to the ICS-900
Installation Instructions (Document No. 065214) and the autosampler
operator’s manual. The manuals are included on the Dionex
Reference Library CD-ROM (P/N 053891). The ICS-900 Installation
Instructions are also included in the ICS-900 Ship Kit (P/N 067768).
2. Prepare and fill the sample vials and place them in the autosampler
tray or cassette. Refer to the autosampler manual for detailed
instructions.
3. Use one of the following methods to load sample into the injection
valve sample loop and inject it onto the column:
• Automatically: Include the Load and Inject commands in a
Chromeleon or Chromeleon Xpress program. See the examples in
Section 3.11.6
. See Section 3.11.3 for details about automatically
processing samples.
• Manually with an AS40: Start the AS40 load cycle (either
manually or with a relay). When the AS40 load cycle is complete,
click the Inject button on the ICS-900 Control panel (see
Figure 3-11
). See Section 3.11.2 for details about manually
processing samples.
• Manually with an AS or AS-DV: Click the Inject icon on the
Chromeleon tool bar or select Control>Inject. On the Inject
dialog box, enter the Position and Volume and click OK.
