How AB SCIEX 4500 Series Works with Different Instruments

Hardware Profiles

A hardware profile tells the Sciex 4500 how the mass spectrometer and the devices are configured and connected to the computer. Multiple hardware profiles can be set up, but only one profile can be active at any time.

When a hardware profile is created in the Hardware Configuration Editor, the peripheral devices must be configured so that the system can communicate with them. Configuring the peripheral devices requires two methods: setting up the physical connections and configuring the software to communicate with the peripheral devices. When the software is installed, the driver needed for each peripheral device is installed after the peripheral devices are connected to the computer and set up the appropriate Sciex 4500 configuration information.

Each hardware profile must associate a mass spectrometer. Before creating any ideological method, ensure that all devices used in the process are included in the hardware profile, including the syringe pump. The equipment configured in the active hardware setting and selected in the Add/Remove Device Method dialogue shown as icons in the Acquisition method pane. Only peripheral equipment included in the active hardware profile can be used when creating acquisition methods.

Each hardware profile must have a mass spectrometer. Before using an acquisition method, ensure that all devices used in the process are included in the hardware profile. The devices engraved in the active hardware profile and selected in the Remove Device Method dialogue are shown as icons in the needed method pane. Only peripheral devices included in the functional hardware can be used when creating acquisition methods.
