Just wondering:

Who has Analyst 1.6.2 running on a Windows 7 (32bits) system and is working with a Perkin Elmer Flexar FX-15 UHPLC system?
We're trying to upgrade from Analyst 1.4.2 to 1.6.2 and from WinXP to Win7, but can't manage to get it to work together..
When I run a sample it seems like the system doesn't get a stop code to stop the run at the end of a run, it just keeps on going until it reaches the idle time limit for the pumps.
I can't find any driver updates for Perkin Elmer Flexar FX-15.
For Analyst 1.6.2 I found some fixes, but not for my problem..

Regards,

Analyst only supports the PE 200 series instruments. I guess you have setup your hardware profile in Analyst as MS only where you only trigger the MS when it gets a start or stop signal from your UHPLC. When your run is done, the MS will to to standby, but your system will keep op pumping. Can't you add a second method in your queue with a switch, where you lower your flow and switch the flow to waste instead of MS?

Hi,

I think I fixed it. Turned out that the newest Flexar FX-15 pump driver (ver. 1.5) was the problem.
Downgrading to version 1.0.1.xx solved the problem.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi All,

Could anyone send me the copy of Flexar driver for Analyst (version 1.5)?
We want to it out. We have only older version.

I'm trying to connect a Flexar pump to any version of Analyst. I need a copy of the Analyst drivers for the Flexar.

Does anyone have a copy or point me to a download?

I actually found a copy of the Analyst driver for the new Flexar FX-15 and FX-20 LC systems. Message me if anyone needs a copy.
