Conditions for SST use

The following requirements must be fulfilled in order to start a validation:

Setting the SST method on an Instrument

You can either open an existing SST method using the SST - Open... command in the Chromatogram window, or create a new SST method using the SST - New command.

Calibrated chromatograms

Components in validated chromatograms are identified according to the component name (i.e. you can only validate identified components).

Opening the chromatogram(s) in the Chromatogram window

Validation calculations will automatically run after a chromatogram has been opened in the Chromatogram window (it is not necessary to press any button).

Remember that when recording validation results in a database file, they will only be recorded when the chromatogram closes.

Note:

Chromatograms are closed using the File - Close and File - Close All commands or by closing the Chromatogram window. If the Overlay mode has been disabled, loading a new chromatogram will close the previous one.
