Sequence

  • Use the File - New command or the icon in the Sequence window to create a new sequence.
  • Name the sequence in the Save As dialog.
  • The new sequence is created as a copy of the EATemplate.seq file stored in the COMMON subdirectory of the Clarity folder (C:\CLARITY\DataFiles\COMMON by default). If this file is missing, default program parameters will be used.

Note:

You can store the common part of your sequence (most commonly the sequence options and the initial standards with first sample row) to this file.

  • Set the method to sequence by using one of the following:
    • After clicking in the cell in the Method Name column the icon will appear. Using it invokes the dialog where the method can be selected.
    • The method can be directly input by typing the method's name in the cell in the Method Name column.
    • In the Method Setup dialog select the desired method and click either Set To Sequence or Send Method.

Note:

Only an user with access right Select Method can change the method. The Set to Sequence button is disabled when the sequence is running or the method is modified or noname.met or when the Sequence window is not opened.

  • Add new rows to the Sequence Table by clicking the checkbox in the Run column on the last empty line or editing any of its fields.

Note:

Starting vial (SV) and End vial (EV) fields will be incremented automatically; other fields will be copied from the previous row.

You can also paste the data into the Sample ID or Sample Amount column. This action will add the corresponding number of rows. Alternatively, the sample information can be imported from a text file generated by a LIMS or Sample Database applications using the File - Import command.
