Connect one Autosampler (Dionex ASM) to TWO systems ?

Hello!

I currently have 2 Dionex DX300 chromatographs running simultaneously (to save time). One for anions and one for cations.

Each sample runs anions and cations. So a Dionex ASM autosampler is a simple and affordable solution for my needs. Since this AS uses external injectors, I imagined that I could have one injector's out-port go into the in-port of the other injector and have them both loaded up at the same time.

The question is, how could I program both chromatographs in peaknet to make use of the same load cycle of the autosampler and have them run in parallel after that, and then load up the next sample etc.

any ideas would be welcome.

I do something similar. I run a single AS40 to 2 inject valves. The easiest thing to do is program everything on the same timebase. Just be sure to name each system differently - ie each data stream needs to have a unique identifier.

Let me know if you need help. I can walk you through the steps. What version of Chromeleon are you running?

I didn't see your request for contact information. I know it's been months now, but if you need a hand, let me know and I'll send you my direct contact information.

Hope all is running smoothly.
