Gradient & Auxiliary Signals tab

User Options - Auxiliary Signals

This tab determines which auxiliary signals will be displayed in the graph and selects the gradient graph display (in the Chromatogram and Data Acquisition windows) when utilizing direct control of HPLC pumps.

Show Auxiliary Signals

Switches the display of the auxiliary signals on/off and activates the possibility to select the auxiliary signal as Y-axis. Each auxiliary signal is included in one of the following categories: Flow, Pressure, Temperature, Voltage, Power, Current and Other. The display of all signals in each category is allowed together.

Show Gradient

Switches the display of the gradient on/off and activates the possibility to select the gradient as the right Y axis.

Show Total Flow

Switches the display of the total flow on/off and activates the possibility to select the total flow as Y axis.

Show Y Axis for

Determines the appearance of the right (second) Y axis. Available options are:

(do not show) - Not visible.

Auxiliary Signals - Shows the axis for auxiliary signals. The right Y axis of checked auxiliary signal will be displayed automatically in the graph. In case that several auxiliary signals are in the same chromatogram, the axis of first auxiliary signal (based on Show Auxiliary Signal list) will be displayed. The right Y axis always corresponds to the active auxiliary signal in the graph.

Gradient - The percentage share of individual solvents.

Total Flow - Flow rate in units set in the Instrument Method Sending dialog accessible from the System Configuration dialog.

Solvent Colors

Selects colors for the display of individual gradient components.

Set to Initial

Returns to default colors.

Solvent D-A

Selects the colors of each of four possible gradient components. Buttons are arranged in the same order as in the graph (i.e. from the bottom).

Source

This section governs which auxiliary signals will be shown.

from the Active Chromatogram Only

Selected types of auxiliary signals will be displayed only in the active chromatogram.

from All Open Chromatograms

Selected types of auxiliary signals will be displayed in all opened chromatograms.
