• Sample Name — The sample name is a text entry box
in which you can label the run. Type a unique descriptor.
PeakTrak saves the run information under this name.
Therefore, PeakTrak cannot accept any characters that
are reserved by the operating system (* ? / \, etc.). If you
do not type a Sample Name, PeakTrak will generate a
date/time stamp for the name when you click the Play
button to begin the run.
• Flow Rate — Type or select the desired flow rate for the
run. When using the Isco default column methods,
PeakTrak sets the flow rate to the optimum flow rate of
the column.
• Detector — Reports the current peak detection mode.
To change the peak detection settings, open the METHOD
EDITOR [4.3.2] window.
• Solvent A — Select the desired solvent from the list.
The solvents in the list are those defined by the
CONFIGURATION [4.3.10] window. For assistance in
selecting a solvent, see the SOLVENT SELECTION TABLE
[ON-LINE].
• Solvent B — Select the desired solvent from the list.
4.3.1.3 Run Control Buttons
From left to right, the control buttons are:
• Play — The Play button starts or resumes the run. After
a run has started, this button is replaced by the Pause
button.
• Pause — The Pause button holds the %B at the current
value while the module continues to operate (sometimes
called an isocratic hold). Note that pausing the run
extends the run length. While in the Paused state, you
can resume the run by clicking the Play button, or stop
the run by clicking the Stop button. If you resume the
run, the module continues the gradient curve from the
%B when the module was paused.
• Stop — This button suspends the entire run. Unlike the
Paused state, the pump, peak detection, and fraction
collection will not operate. While stopped, you can save
