Data Acquisition window

  • In the Instrument window look at the Status line (see Fig "Instrument window"). The acquisition is now signaled by the Running state and the actual run time is shown there.
  • To see the data acquisition in process and control it if necessary, click the Data Acquisition icon (see Fig "Instrument window") to open the Data Acquisition window.
  • Depending on your Instrument's configuration, one or more signals may be displayed. The number of detectors (signals) and their names can be seen in the upper right corner of the graph .

The Data Acquisition window

  • In the Status bar on the bottom of the Data Acquisition window, the elapsed time of the analysis can be seen, as well as the value of the signal for each detector and its units.
  • Stop and Abort icons allow you to cancel the analysis. If stopped, Clarity will save all the data acquired so far and stop the analysis. Abort cancels the acquisition without saving any data.
  • Snapshot icon creates the preview of the already measured data. After clicking on it, snapshot chromatogram is created and opened in the Chromatogram window. If it is not Saved As under new name until the measurement is completed, it is overwritten by the newly created complete chromatogram.
  • After 7 minutes and 30 seconds (the run time set in the template method used for the measurement), the analysis will automatically stop and the chromatogram will be opened in the Chromatogram window.
  • The Chromatogram window opens automatically if it was not opened before, because of the settings made in the Single Analysis dialog. These settings are available in the Post-run Options tab. You can also configure additional post-run actions, such as exporting data or executing external programs, in this tab.
