Clarity in network overview

Clarity is not a client-server (C/S) solution, nonetheless it can be configured for use in multi-user and multi-instrument networked environment.

What does the solution Clarity in network offer?
  • Instrument control, real-time signal monitoring and run control is possible only trough the local Clarity station, i.e. Clarity must be connected to respective chromatography instrument. Each Clarity needs to be set locally (including .cfg and .psw).
  • Using the System - Directories, the location of the Clarity data/projects can be set anywhere within the network (typically on a shared server back upped drive). The data can be then accessed from any Clarity station on the network, including the Clarity Offline stations intended for evaluation of data from another computers.
  • Clarity Offline allows users to prepare methods and evaluate acquired data.
  • With Clarity Offline users are able to work with acquired data on additional computers in the laboratory or at home.
  • File access conflicts may occur when accessing the same file (e.g. method) from different Clarity stations.
What does the solution Clarity in network not offer?
  • Central management of users.
  • Central management of documents such as chromatograms, calibrations and methods.
  • Direct control of acquisition, i.e. run/stop/abort from other Clarity stations.
  • Direct control of instruments from other Clarity stations.
  • Watch real time signal being acquired by detectors from other Clarity stations.
