Note
The available commands and options will change according to
the active window, the state of the system, and the current file.
PeakTrak controls the separations performed by the system
through a M F
ETHOD ILE
method to perform a separation. When the system is powered up,
it has a default method in the system associated with the column
selected as a default in the C
column system this should reflect the column mounted on the
system. This default method exists on the system hard drive and
a copy of the method is automatically loaded into a temporary
use area. If the default method meets your needs, simply press
play to start a separation. On the other hand, if you want to cus-
tomize the method for use on this separation only, simply edit the
method (editing the gradient by dragging a gradient point is a
commonly used modification). This modified gradient will be
used for the separation. This method is not saved for later reuse
