The Instrument Status lights indicate the status of the instrument vacuum. When
the operational vacuum conditions are satisfied and the instrument is in analysis
mode, the Ready light (green) is illuminated and the Fault light (red) is
extinguished. The Fault light flashes when a vacuum fault is detected. In Pump-
Down mode, the Ready light flashes for the duration of the sequence.
Directly below the source housing is a set of conveniently integrated sample
introduction features. An integrated switching valve with associated Load and
Inject buttons (marked A and B, respectively) can be used as a manual injector
when optimizing for an analyte using FIA, or for diverting LC flow when any
precipitate or salts initially come off the LC column. Below that, an integrated
syringe pump is available for infusing standards when calibrating the instrument
or optimizing for an analyte.
