- report header with instrument ID and program version
- method name
- number of samples (e. g. 20)
- initialize all Remote lines
- approach first sample
- remote start of the 797 VA Computrace
- wait for advance signal of the 797 VA Computrace
- approach sample
- run lift and needle to work position
- set Remote line: Sample ready
- wait for advance signal of the 797 VA Computrace
- add auxiliary solution (e. g. VMS) with Dosino
- set Remote line: auxiliary solution ready
- fill dosing unit
- wait for advance signal of the 797 VA Computrace
- approach next rack position
- run needle to work position
- set Remote line: cleaning solution ready
----- miscellaneous settings -----
Note: The command lines 6 to 10 are only necessary, if a dosing
drive is connected to the Sample Processor for adding auxiliary solu-
tion. In the 797 VA Computrace software the parameter "Dose auxil-
iary solution via sample processor" in the configuration dialog
"Settings / General settings / Automation" must be activated.
If adding of auxiliary solution is operated by the 797 VA Computrace,
line 6 to 10 have to be deleted.
Using the method above, it is assumed that dosing drive 1 adds the
VMS solution. The volume added in method line 7 of the sample se-
quence has to be adapted to the specific application. It is recom-
