Tour through the Clarity station

The following two sections will guide you through a single analysis (the chapter "Running the Single Analysis") and a sequence measurement (the chapter "Running the Sequence measurement"). The sections provide step-by-step instructions which should be performed in the given order. Some sections may be skipped, as their output files have been already included as examples. You will be accordingly notified in those sections. Furthermore, Note sections included throughout the following describe optional procedures, and it is not necessary to perform them in order to reach the goal.

The Clarity software is intuitive and easy to master without much training. The first analysis can be run in less than one minute after installing the station and configuring the hardware.

This tour assumes that the station is in its default configuration and that nothing has been modified in the demo projects. It is possible to test the Clarity functions on other projects, but the files mentioned in this guide will not be present.

Note:

Although this tour through the station is aimed at Clarity beginners, it assumes that users have a basic knowledge of chromatography principles and basic processes such as calibration.
