Start cycle program and data acquisition
•
Click on
or select
Restart method
of the
Acquire
menu.
•
Update the parameters in the
Start Run
window and start method
with
OK
.
•
The parameters stored in the method and the time program are
sent to the 732 IC Detector.
*
in the lower left part of the window
shows that the PC is sending data.
•
As soon as the program at the 732 IC Detector is ready, it will be
started automatically. This is indicated by the blinking LED in the
<PROG R/S> key at the 732 IC Detector. Depending on the con-
figuration in the
Measure
tab, the data acquisition proceeds as fol-
lows:
Start mode = Extern
→
Data acquisition is started with the
Inject
instruction in the time program.
Start mode = Manual
→
Data acquisition is started as soon as
the time program at the 732 IC Detector is running.
•
If the
Restart Method
option is selected in the
Method / Method Setup /
Processing
menu, the time program is restarted at the end of the
program. If the
Restart Method
option is not selected in the
Method /
Method Setup / Processing
menu, only one cycle of this program is
performed. If the method is started from a queue, the program is
stopped as soon as all rows of method X are worked off.
•
The time program is stored as program type
cycle
with
number of
cycles = 1
. The time program and the parameters are sent again to
the 732 IC Detector at the end of the chromatogram. Therefore,
program and parameters can be changed during a running
method, but the changes are not effective until the next cycle.
