Creating an Instrument Control Method 141<br />
GLP<br />
This section, only available with Knauer networking pumps, displays GLP<br />
(Good Laboratory Practice) related information transferred to or<br />
“downloaded” from the pump. Pressing the -button will<br />
actualize this information. The extent of the information depends on the<br />
given pump.<br />
Direct Control<br />
The direct control area will appear disabled as long as the direct control<br />
option is not activated. Except during a run it can be activated via the<br />
menu sequence METHOD – OPTIONS – RUNTIME SETTINGS…, (see<br />
Fig. 249 on page 170).<br />
The direct control enables someone to control the instrument directly,<br />
even during a running method. Changes made to the settings and applied<br />
during a run will be automatically stored in the method. The<br />
corresponding new lines in the spreadsheets are marked with the<br />
comment DC Op (Direct Control Operation). Applied changes in a not-<br />
running method will not be saved. However, it will be recorded in the<br />
Activity Log.<br />
Flow (ml/min)<br />
Specify the flow in ml/min you would like to have at the moment and click<br />
the button to send the flow to the pump. If an LPG pump<br />
is used, also the gradient setting will be send.<br />
<br />
The Flow Apply button will send the flow, entered into the Flow field, to<br />
the pump.<br />
<br />
The button will interrupt delivery while the run time continues.<br />
The pump remains in slave mode. This button is also active during a run<br />
to stop the pump e.g. in an emergency situation. This will not stop the<br />
whole method, only the pump’s flow! Due to, that this is a method<br />
change; the current method will be changed. The Stop will be added to<br />
the currently running method, if the option “Save changes in time table” of<br />
the “Direct control during a run” section of the Runtime Settings is<br />
enabled. Please refer the section “Runtime Settings” in the “Knauer<br />
Instrument Control Options” for more information.<br />
<br />
Pressing this button will send the current flow and gradient settings for<br />
execution to the pump.<br />
Gradient Components (%)<br />
Specify the composition (% A, B …), you would like to have at the<br />
moment and click the button. The components field is<br />
applicable for the HPG (High Pressure Gradient) or LPG (Low Pressure<br />
Gradient) mode. Depending on how many components are configured,<br />
the corresponding number of fields (% A, B …) will be accessible.<br />
The button is active only during a run. Clicking on it<br />
opens the following window.
