System Components; System Operation - Waters Xevo TQ MS Operator And Maintenance Manual

System components

The onboard system incorporates a 6-port selector valve, a multi-position
diverter valve, a pump, and three sample reservoirs.
The sample reservoirs are mounted on the instrument's front panel. When you
select a solvent from the Instrument Console, a light-emitting diode (LED)
illuminates the appropriate reservoir. You can simultaneously illuminate all
three reservoirs or extinguish the LEDs for light-sensitive samples.
Recommendation:
tuning compounds, and reservoir C for analyte/optimization solution.

System operation

The software automatically controls solvent and sample delivery during
auto-tuning, auto-calibration, and method development.
You can set IntelliStart configuration requirements in the Instrument
Console. You can edit the parameters, frequency, and extent of the
automation. See the mass spectrometer's online Help for further details on
IntelliStart software and operation of the instrument's solvent delivery
system.
