Making a measurement
These are all the questions that need to be answered in order to define a measure-
ment.
Anyone can create an SOP but typically it is the responsibility of the system admin-
istrator. An SOP can be created by a specialist and then distributed to all Master-
sizer 2000 users in an organisation.
Remember that no instrument needs to be connected to the software to write an
SOP. The Malvern software can be installed on a remote computer and SOPs cre-
ated and edited before they are tried out on an instrument. (The Essentials Man-
ual has details on installing the software on another computer.)
A completely new SOP can be created by selecting Configure-New SOP and fol-
lowing the SOP Wizard. An existing SOP can be easily edited either to correct it
or to create a new SOP based on it. If several slightly varying SOPs are being saved,
it is useful to include the differentiating features in the SOP name e.g. "glopalene
ultrasound 60", "glopalene ultrasound 40".
To edit an SOP select Configure-Existing SOP.... A tabbed dialogue will appear.
Each tab corresponds to a screen from the SOP Wizard. Select a tab and change
any of the entries as required. Click OK to save the changes.
To create a new SOP based on an existing one, first modify the existing SOP using
Configure-Existing SOP. Once all the changes have been made, the Save-As
dialogue will appear. Save the SOP under a different name.
