How to get results to automatically display from Read Weight in a method?
Hi,
I currently have an issue where I am trying to adjust the method for my instrument to take readings at specific points in the analysis, rather than at a specific time. Currently, I have the method set up to take readings at 13 and 32 minutes, but would like to adjust that to taking readings at specific steps in the method.
I understand there is a "Read Weight -> if the weight% equilibrates within 0.01" option, but this does not seem to display in View->Results when I open the results file.
At the moment, my method looks like this:
1) Hold for 1 min at 35°C
2) Heat from 35°C to 110°C at 20°C/min
3)Hold for 10 mins at 110°C. ->Go to the Next Program Step. -> if the weight equilibrates within 0.01.
There are more steps but those are the relevant ones.
Is it possible to have a weight reading taken at the same point the method goes to the Next Program Step, and have that weight result appear in the results file?
Thank you very much for you help.
