Check barcodes during a run
Barcode values are used during acquisition as a means to trace inputs of samples as well as data outputs. This feature is supported by the following devices: Agilent GC (7683, 7693, CTC PAL, or 7697A Headspace).
When creating a sequence table before acquisition, you can enter the expected barcodes into the Expected Barcode column of the sequence table by running a manual scan of the vials or by typing the barcode value directly into the column.
Once you have entered values in the Expected Barcode column of the sequence table, use this procedure to set the Run Options so you are alerted if there is a mismatch between the expected barcode in your sequence table and what is scanned on the vial at injection time. You can also set the next action of the system if a mismatch is detected.
- Click Sequence.
- With a sequence loaded in the Sequence table, click Run Options.
- Select Use Barcode Reader Before Injection, and select whether to Inject anyway or Abort current injection if there is a barcode mismatch.
- Click Run.
