2-8 Preparing for Operation
Purging the infusion pump
Whenever you replace a solution bottle, purge the infusion pump with the
solution that you are going to use next. See the mass spectrometer’s online
Help for details.
Requirement:
Ensure that the end of the tubing is fully submerged in the
solvent in the wash reservoir.
Tip:
Depending on the solutions used, the instrument’s solvent delivery
system can require more than one purge cycle to minimize carryover.
Rebooting the instrument
The reset button causes the mass spectrometer to reboot.
Reboot the instrument when either of these conditions applies:
• Immediately following a software upgrade.
• MassLynx software fails to initialize.
To reboot the instrument:
1. Ensure that MassLynx software is closed.
2. Insert a short length (7.5 cm) of PEEK™ tubing, or similar object, into
the reset button aperture at the top, right-hand side of the instrument’s
front panel.
