Aborting a Sequence

The abort function terminates a currently active sequence immediately.

Pausing a Sequence

During a sequence pause, the sequence table file name and the data file name
cannot be changed. In the sequence table you can only change sequence lines
that have not already been executed or change the vial number in the current
sequence line. You can add, delete, and change sequence lines for future
analyses.
For example, it may be necessary to edit an active sequence to add a new
batch of samples. You can edit the sequence so these vials will be the next
sample that the ChemStation will process after the samples in the currently
running sequence line.

Running a Partial Sequence

A sequence table that is already set up can be partially executed by selecting
Partial Sequence from the Sequence menu. The system displays the Partial
Sequence dialog box and allows you to select individual samples from the table
for analysis.
A single run is shown on each line of the Partial Sequence dialog box. For each
run, the vial, method, data file, and sample name are given. Additionally,
encoded information about the sequence table and any calibration samples are
shown in the Seq Tbl and Calib:RF:RT columns. See the online help for an
explanation of these codes
You can obtain a paper copy of the partial sequence by selecting the Print
button.
The following Partial Sequence dialog box results when the SimpReg Method
and Sequence Table, shown later in
page 191, are current. Samples 1, 2, 4, 5, and 8 are marked for processing.
