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 shown there.
- To see the data acquisition in process and control it if necessary, click the Data Acquisition
icon (see Fig "Instrument window") to enter the Data Acquisition window. - Depending on your station's configuration, one or more signals may be displayed. The number of detectors (signals) and their names can be seen in the upper right corner of the graph ①.
- In the Status bar on the bottom of the Data Acquisition window, the elapsed time of the analysis ② can be seen, as well as the value of the signal for each detector ③ and its units.
Note:
If the detector range is exceeded, the OVER string in red lettering will be displayed in the part of the status bar corresponding to the detector.
- Stop
and Abort 
icons ④ allow you to cancel the analysis. If stopped, Clarity will save all the data acquired so far and stop the analysis. Abort cancels the acquisition without saving any data. - Snapshot icon
creates the preview of the already measured data. After clicking on 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"). - After 7 minutes and 30 seconds (the run 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 automatically because the station is set to do so. These settings are available in the Single Analysis window at the Post Run Settings tab. You can also configure additional post run actions, such as exporting data or executing external programs, in this tab.
