with mass spectrometers, using the IEEE-488 interface between the
MassLynx computer and the separations module.
To set the separations module to the Controlled by MassLynx mode:
1. Select the System field in the Configuration screen, and then press
Enter to display a list of operating modes.
2. From the list of operating modes, select Controlled by MassLynx, then
press Enter.
Result: The Network Address field is highlighted.
3. Press Enter to display a list of addresses.
4. Select an address that is unused by other chromatographic components
connected to the MassLynx computer, and then press Enter and then
Exit.
See “Perform automatic runs under MassLynx control” on page 144 for details
on performing runs under MassLynx software control.
Controlled by Operate Gradient by Event In mode
In this mode, an external autosampler (a Waters 2700 Sample Manager, for
example) initiates the start of a chromatographic run and performs the inject
function (instead of the separations module). The separations module has no
control of IEEE-488 devices, but can control non-IEEE devices using the I/O
connections on its rear panel. See “I/O signal connections” on page 71 for
information on I/O connections.
To set the separations module to the Operate Gradient by Event In mode:
1. Select the System field in the Configuration screen, and then press
Enter to display a list of operating modes.
2. From the list of operating modes, select Operate Gradient by Event In,
and then press Enter.
3. Press the Events In screen key to display the Events In dialog box.
Tip: For information on defining Events In conditions, see “Events in” on
page 94.
4. Set the Stop Flow field to the appropriate condition (Ignore, High, or
Low), and then press Enter.
