2.2 The Chromeleon Interface
NOTE This section provides a brief overview of the
Chromeleon interface. For details, refer to the
Chromeleon Help or user’s manual.
Chromeleon software is used for remote control of ICS-2000 operation. Two
modes of software control are available: direct control and automated control.
•
With direct control, you select operating parameters and commands from the
Chromeleon menu bar, toolbars, and Control panels. Direct control commands
are executed as soon as they are entered.
Section 2.2.2 describes the
commands available from the ICS-2000 Control panels.
•
With automated control, you create a list of samples (a sequence) to be
processed automatically. The sequence includes programs with commands
and parameters for controlling the ICS-2000, acquiring sample data, and
producing reports.
Section 3.11.2 describes automatic sample processing.
