Data Acquisition window

Analysis Procedure: Step 1 -> Step 2 -> Step 3 -> Step 4 -> Step 5

• In the Instrument window, look at the Status line (see Fig "Instrument window"). The acquisition is now signaled by the RUNNING state and the actual run time is displayed there.
• To see the data acquisition in process and possibly control it, use the Data Acquisition icon (see Fig "Instrument window") to enter the Data Acquisition window.
• In the Data Acquisition window two signals can be seen. This is because the analysis is set as two-detector ① analysis.

• In the Status bar on the bottom of the Data Acquisition window, the time of the analysis ② can be seen, as well as the signal for each detector ③ in its particular units.

• Stop and Abort icons ④ allow for canceling the analysis. In the case of stopping, Clarity will save all data acquired so far and cancel the analysis, while aborting cancels the acquisition without saving any data.
• Snapshot icon is also available for creating the preview of already measured data. After clicking it, the Chromatogram window will open with the chromatogram file corresponding to the part of the data already measured (more information on the Chromatogram window can be found in the chapter "Chromatogram window"). If the Snapshot chromatogram is to be preserved, it must be saved under a different name (File - Save As), as it would be overwritten by the real chromatogram at the end of the analysis.
• After 7 minutes 30 seconds (the time set in the template method used for the measurement), the analysis will automatically stop and the Chromatogram window will open.

• The Chromatogram window opens because the station is set to do so. These settings are available in the Single Run window in Post Run Settings tab. Other post run actions including export of data or running external program can be set there as well.
