3.10 Loading and Injecting Samples
NOTE Samples can be injected using either the standard
injection valve or the optional auxiliary valve, if
installed. For more information, see the Chromeleon
Help or user’s manual.
The two techniques for loading samples into the sample loop are: (1) with an
autosampler or (2) with a syringe or vacuum syringe through the injection port on
the ICS-2100 front door.
For autosampler injections, the injection port tubing is disconnected from the ICS-
2100 injection valve and replaced by the autosampler outlet tubing. Other setup
requirements depend upon the model of autosampler.
Setup for an AS Autosampler
To use an AS Autosampler with the ICS-2100, the following requirements must
be met:
• The ICS-2100 injection valve (or the auxiliary valve, if installed) must be
specified as the injection valve and must be linked to the AS in the
Chromeleon timebase.
• An injection valve should not be installed in the AS.
See the ICS-2100 installation instructions for AS connection instructions.
NOTE The ICS-2100 and the AS can be set up for stand-alone
(front panel) operation. This requires a TTL cable
connection between the ICS-2100 and the AS. See
Section D.3
for stand-alone setup instructions.
Setup for an AS-DV Autosampler
To use an AS-DV Autosampler with the ICS-2100, the following requirements
must be met:
• The ICS-2100 injection valve must be linked to the AS-DV in the
Chromeleon timebase.
