Acquisition information

The system touchscreen displays information about the active acquisition, solvents, and system conditions.

Starting with Alliance iS version 2.0, when the system is running an acquisition, the touchscreen automatically displays a view showing key information about the acquisition. The following figure shows the Alliance iS touchscreen acquisition view.

For systems running Empower version 3.8 or higher, the screen displays:

• Current injection
• Injections remaining
• Injections completed
• Current injection time remaining (HH:MM:SS)
• Total sample time remaining (HH:MM:SS)
• Elapsed time since injection (HH:MM:SS)
• Current injection location
• Sample name
• Instrument method

For systems running Empower prior to version 3.8, the screen displays:

• Injections remaining
• Current injection time remaining (HH:MM:SS)
• Elapsed time since injection (HH:MM:SS)
• Current injection location

For all versions of Empower, the touchscreen presents additional groups of information:

• Solvent information (mobile phase and washes)
  • Six bottles; labeled A, B, C, D, S, and N
  • Solvent level (in mL when less than 1 L and in L when greater than or equal to 1 L)
  • Solvent name
  • Bottle size in liters
  • Indicates when the solvent bottle is low (less than 20%)
  • Indicates when the solvent bottle is empty (less than 10%)
  • Indicates when the solvent bottle use by date has expired
  • Indicates when the solvent bottle use by date is about to expire (within three days of its expiration date)
• System conditions
  • Flow state
  • Lamp state
  • Delta pressure
  • System pressure
  • Sample temperature
  • Column temperature

You can page through these three groups of information by tapping on one of the three dots on the screen or by swiping left or right. .
