Single Analysis dialog

Use the Single Analysis button in the Instrument window to open the Single Analysis dialog.

The Single Analysis dialog

  • The fields in the Analysis tab contain information about the sample. You may set the values in the fields as shown in Fig "The Single Analysis dialog", as typical analysis settings.
  • Sample ID and Sample fields are only informational, and can be propagated to chromatogram name via variables.
  • Values in Sample Amount, Dilution, ISTD Amount, and Inj. Volume fields can be used for further calculations.
  • Choosing the Standard from the Sample Type drop-down menu and entering a value in the Level field would mark this sample as the calibration standard and save the chromatogram into the CALIB subdirectory.
  • The measurement of the sample will be performed according to the method selected in the Method field. Method can be selected by using button.
  • The Edit Method... button opens the Method Setup dialog, where you can edit the parameters of the method. Click the button and check the setting of the Autostop parameter (Autostop should be enabled) and Run Time (7.5 minutes). Return to the Single Analysis dialog by pressing the OK button.
  • Chromatogram File Name field is used for entering the file name of the resulting chromatograms. It is possible to use plain text together with variables adding the time, date, sample name or other parameters to create a unique chromatogram name. The resulting name can be seen just above the field in parentheses.

Note:

The complete set of available variables is shown after clicking the field and selecting the icon.

  • After the parameter setup, you can run the analysis by clicking the Run button . The Single Analysis dialog will close now. If you open it again, you will see three additional buttons (Stop, Abort, Snapshot) that will allow you to stop or abort the analysis or take snapshots (see the chapter "Data Acquisition window").
  • Close the Single Analysis dialog and return to the Instrument window.
