Starting up the system
Use the Start up system function after the system has been idle a short period
of time (as much as 12 hours) and when you plan to use the same solvents that
you used during the previous run.
You can invoke the “Start up system” function from the control panel, or add it
as a line in a sample set.
Recommendations:
•
Prime the binary solvent manager for 1 minute for each solvent when
the system has been idle for four or more hours, and you intend to use
the solvents already in the system.
•
Prime the binary solvent manager for four minutes for each solvent
when you intend to use fresh solvents of the same composition as those
already in the system.
To refresh the system:
1. In the ACQUITY UPLC Console, click Control > Start up system.
2. In the Start up system dialog box, review the settings and select a
different option, if needed.
•
Solvent line A only (default)
•
Solvent line B only
•
Both A and B
3. Click OK.
Result:
The system primes the selected solvents, primes the sample
manager with one weak-wash prime (using the wash and sample
syringes), and ignites the lamp in the detector.
