3.10.4 Injecting Samples
After loading the sample in the sample loop, use one of the following
methods to switch the injection valve to the Inject position:
•
Manually: Click the Inject button on the Chromeleon Control panel
(see Figure 3-4 ) or touch the Inject button on the HOME page.
•
Automatically: Include the Inject command in a Chromeleon
program. (If necessary, refer to the Chromeleon Help or user manual
for assistance.)
3.11 Processing Samples
Samples can be run manually (one at a time) or else they can be grouped and run
automatically in batches.
3.11.1 Manual Sample Processing
To process samples manually, select operating parameters and commands
from the touch screen pages, or from the Chromeleon menu bar, toolbars,
and Control panel. Commands are executed as soon as they are entered.
NOTE When you run samples manually from the front
panel (without using Chromeleon), the data is saved
only temporarily in the ICS-2100 memory. For a
permanent record of the data, connect a recording
device (chart recorder, integrator, etc.) to the analog
output. See
Section B.21 for analog output
connection instructions.
1. Complete the instructions in Section 3.2 through Section 3.8 to
prepare the ICS-2100 for operation and to prepare the sample for
processing.
2. Load the sample, using a syringe, vacuum syringe, or autosampler
(see Section 3.10 ).
3. In Chromeleon, select Control > Acquisition On. Chromeleon
records the signal supplied by the detector and displays the signal plot
on the Control panel.
