The following columns are available in the sequence table.
| Column | Description | Allowed value and range |
| Action | An indication of the action performed at that line of the sequence. The value is read only. Actions include Inject (perform an injection) and Create report (no injection, but the specified data will be processed, and a sequence summary report will be generated). | |
| Acq. method | The name of the method used to acquire the raw data (acquisition method). If using a method in a subfolder, the subfolder path relative to the root path must be used. For example, <sub-folder>\<method file name>. | Any character, no limit |
| Barcode | The barcode label as it has been read from the sample vial. The value is read only and only intended for automation purposes. See Check barcodes during a run. | Any character, no limit |
| Bracket | Displays how calibration standards are bracketed according to the selected Bracketing mode. This column is populated only when a Sequence Creation Template is applied that contains a bracketing mode. This column cannot be imported into the sequence table from a CSV or TSV file. | Any character, no limit |
| Compound amounts | An indication if the amount of a calibration sample has been modified. The compound amount is defined in the calibration parameters in the method, but may be adjusted for individual injections. When clicking in this column for a calibration standard, the window shows the actual amounts in the sample and amounts defined in the method. | Numbers only, 7decimal.9decimal limit, for example: 1234567.123456789 |
| Custom parameters | If you have configured custom fields for your project in Control Panel, you can view and edit the values in this column. Click in the column to view Sample and Compound custom parameters and values. Whether or not a customer parameter is mandatory is specified in Control Panel. Values of mandatory parameters cannot be deleted. This column cannot be imported into the sequence table from a CSV or TSV file. | Text - characters only
Number
- numbers only Date/time - entry format and validation is set by local Windows date/time format |
| Data file | The name of the individual injection's .dx file that gets saved
to storage. You can manually change the data file name; however,
you cannot have duplicate file names. Default value uses the token <D>-<##>. For example 2017-03-13 10-17-58-07-00-01. |
255 characters, special characters will be resolved to - at runtime |
| Description | A description of the sample. | 4096 character limit |
| Dil. factor1 Dil. factor2 Dil. factor3 Dil. factor4 Dil. factor5 |
The dilution factor per sample. Used to calculate the concentration for all compounds. | Numbers only, 5decimal.5decimal limit, for example: 12345.12345 |
| Expected barcode | The barcode entered manually by running a manual scan of the vials or by typing the barcode value directly into the column. See Check barcodes during a run. | Any character, no limit |
| Frac. Recovery Location | The location in the recovery device where the eluate is stored after a fraction is collected. This column is only available when your instrument configuration contains a fraction recovery device. | Any valid vial location. Allowed values determined by fraction recovery device specifications. |
| Frac. Start Location | The vial number in the fraction collection tray where the first fraction is collected. This column is only available when your instrument configuration contains a fraction collection device. | Any valid vial location. Allowed values determined by fraction collection device specifications. |
| Inj/Vial | The number of times a line in the sequence will be run. For example, a value of 3 for line 1 in the sequence table will re-run line 1 three times and generate 3 different data files. | Numbers only, 999 character limit |
| Injection source | The location where the sample will be injected. Options are instrument dependent. This column cannot be imported into the sequence table from a CSV or TSV file. | Select from available options |
| ISTD amt1 ISTD amt2 ISTD amt3 ISTD amt4 ISTD amt5 |
The amounts of each of the internal standards being used in the analysis. Values entered in the sequence table override the ISTD amount in the method. If no value is entered, the amount in the method is used. | Numbers only, 5decimal.5decimal limit, for example: 12345.12345 |
| Label selection | The label for an injection run. Used to create sequence summary reports. | Alphanumeric characters only |
| Level | For calibration standards, the level of the standard. | Numbers only, 99 character limit |
| LIMS ID1 LIMS ID2 LIMS ID3 |
The keys required for connection to and from a LIM system. | Any character, no limit |
| Multiplier1 Multiplier2 Multiplier3 Multiplier4 Multiplier5 |
The multiplication factor per sample. Used to calculate the concentration for all compounds. | Numbers only, 5decimal.5decimal limit, for example: 12345.12345 |
| Proc. method | The name of the method used to analyze the data (processing method). If using a method in a subfolder, the subfolder path relative to the root path must be used. For example, <sub-folder>\<method file name>. | Any character, no limit |
| Run type | For calibration standards:
|
Select from available options |
| Sample amount | The weight of the sample before dilution. | Numbers only, 5decimal.5decimal limit, for example: 12345.12345 |
| Sample name | The name of the sample. | 255 character limit |
| Sample prep method | The name of the method used to prepare the sample. If using a method in a subfolder, the subfolder path relative to the root path must be used. For example, <sub-folder>\<method file name>. | Any character, no limit |
| Sample type | The type of sample. | Select from available options |
| Target1 Target2 Target3 Target4 Target5 |
For mass spectrometry, the masses or formulas that you want to use for the MS sample purity calculation. You can mix molecular weight and formulas, for example, C12 H14 N4 O4 S, 284. | Validation is case sensitive |
| Vial | The vial number or plate location. | Configuration dependent, validated by instrument |
| Volume | The volume of the sample you want to inject at run time. Usually defined in your acquisition method, you can manually override your method injector volume settings in this column. Units of measurement are defined by the instrument configuration. | Configuration dependent, validated by instrument |
