Running Multiple-Vial Analyses
Synchronizing Analyses with External Devices
Standard Mode
In the standard mode, the analysis is under the command of the Instant Pilot. The
Instant Pilot issues a Start command to the autosampler as soon as all modules
are ready for the next analysis. The autosampler issues the Start command at
the point of injection. With an Agilent Autosampler integrated in the system and
no external devices, this is the normal mode of operation.
Send Single Start Request
After you start the analysis with the Instant Pilot, it will generate a single start
request on the APG remote lines. This triggers the external device, which starts
each injection by sending a start signal. The vial range or sequence is started by
the Instant Pilot, but then both systems run free without further synchronization.
