manager.
Result: After completing this procedure, when you select each column manager in the console

through 7 available. The secondary column manager is listed second with Columns 1 through 8
available.
Exception: To run the ABPR health test, select Bypass for both column managers.

C.3.0.3 Select a column
You can use only one column at a time. The software is programmed to limit your selection to one
column. An alarm will appear if you select one column in each column manager.
You select a column in the instrument method editor or in the control panel. Then, for the column
manager that does not control this column, you select None. This stops the flow of sample and
solvent to the unused column manager.
Example: Select a column in the primary column manager, then select None in the secondary
primary manager.
