Probe Not Rinsing When Using Sprint Valve in Qtegra

Issue

Autosampler Probe Not Washing with ASX560 / Sprint Valve in Qtegra

Environment

• Qtegra
• iCAP 7600
• Sprint Valve

Resolution

1) Close all Qtegra programs

2) Uninstall Teledyne Cetac Automation plugin (version 4.4.0.3 for Qtegra 2.10 SR10 and version 4.4.0.4 for Qtegra 2.14) and Cetac Rack File Manager

3) Install version 4.3.2 of the Teledyne Cetac Automation plugin

Teledyne Cetac Autosamplers 4.3.2.0 for Qtegra 2.10.exe.zip

4) Open Configurator

5) Replace any of the current Experiment Configurations using the Cetac plugin with a newly created configuration. Copy settings for ASX560 and Sprint Valve from settings in the original configuration

6) Restart the Qtegra Services

Analysis

During data acquisition, autosampler probe is supposed to go back to the rinse station to rinse out the probe. With the version of the Cetac plugins referenced to Qtegra 2.10 SR10 and 2.14 this does not occur and instead the probe stays in the solution vial. Note: after the data acquisition the extra loop rinse does occur

Cause

Bug in version 4.4.0.3 and 4.4.0.4 of Teledyne Cetac plugin
