module is switched to the next position every 20 min and

conditioned in this way.

5 Condition system "

PrepMSM2.smt

"

Rinse IC system with eluent until the desired stability of the

baseline is achieved and the suppressor module is suffi-

ciently conditioned (at least 1 h).

6 Stop system "

PrepMSM2.smt

"

Select

Stop determination

of the

Control

menu in the system

window. Data recording and time program are stopped, high-

pressure pump and peristaltic pump keep running on.

7 Open and connect system "

s-03.smt

"

Select

Change

of the

System

menu in the system window.

Select the system file

s-03.smt

suited for the METROSEP An-

ion Dual 2 column in the folder

Suppressed

and click on

<Open>

. The system

PrepMSM2.smt

is closed, the system

s-03.smt

is opened and automatically connected.

8 Start system "

s-03.smt

"

Select

Start determination

of the

Control

menu in the system

window. High-pressure pump and peristaltic pump are

started, at the same time, a chromatogram window opens

where the baseline is recorded continuously. The status bar

of this window shows the message

Measure(Baseline)

, beside

this running time, analysis time, absolute conductivity and

number of measuring points per second are displayed. The

messages

Running [761 Compact IC]

and

Waiting for INJECT

[Suppressed]

appear in the

SYSTEM STATE

window

Let the system run for several minutes. If the system has

already been conditioned then a stable conductivity value of

approx. 14

µ

S/cm will be obtained after a few minutes.

Double-click the chromatogram or select

View all

of the

View

menu. The sensitivity is set automatically so that all measur-

ing points are visible.

This function is only available if the integration has been

started. In the present example the integration only starts

after a delay period

Delay = 2.6 min

.

Select the desired sensitivity using the cursor keys < > or
