Description
Indicates the dilutor side-port syringe inserted in the z axis. Use
this function to select another syringe size.
Moves the plunger of the side port syringe up by the specified
distance. This allows adjustment of the plunger tip of the side port
syringe exactly above the lower side port (solvent inlet). You must
fine-tune after changing a side port syringe to allow unrestricted
solvent flow.
Indicates dilutor syringe is installed. If you change the syringe size,
this item must be adapted accordingly. This function coordinates
the syringe-specific dimensions.
Specifies the volume to prime the dilutor syringe can be specified.
The allowed range can be fourfold higher than the actual syringe
volume. This allows filling and emptying a dilutor syringe more
often than just once.
Permits selecting a delay time between solvent filling and ejection
while filling (or priming) the syringe.
Speed of plunger movement of dilutor syringe used in all syringe
filling operations.
Speed of dilutor syringe plunger movement used in all dilutor
syringe eject operations.
Permits selecting a delay time between solvent ejection and filling
while filling (or priming) the syringe.
Description
Use Check Offset to verify the offset from the syringe needle tip to
the tool tip. This function is mainly used for the MALDI tool; it is
not active for the MHE tool.
