INTRODUCTION TO THE SYSTEM SOFTWARE

The BioLogic DuoFlow system software is run on computers running the Microsoft Windows

®

2000 operating

system. This chapter discusses the DuoFlow system software version 5.0.

5.1

SYSTEM INTERFACE

The Manual screen (Figure 5-1) is the first screen displayed when the BioLogic software is started. This
screen, like all DuoFlow screens, is grouped into the system menus, the control window, and the status bar.
The use of the Control window functions is discussed in Chapters 6 and 7 and in the separate
documentation for the Econo Gradient Pump (EGP) and the QuadTec UV/VIS detector. Note that many
menus and tool bar functions are grayed out and inacessible until you select, or enter a User name
in the Browser, see chapter 6.
