OpenLab Chemstation C.01.10 Dual FID Report

nickgalanopoulos

I am using OpenLab Chemstation C.01.10 on an 8890 with dual FIDs. I was trained on HP's version of Chemstation that reported both detector quant amounts in one row for precision purposes. It made it 10x easier to review data and confirm sample concentrations for my HAA5 analysis with both signals on the same row. I have been fiddling with the report designer, but I cannot seem to figure it out. Is it possible for the software to report in the manner described?

    Marty,

    It seems the core of the issue is that my compound names do not pull like your compounds and information (RT, area, amount) do in your demo. I have the calibration table established on both detectors and with the same exact name. If I have to generate reports in the review tab from now on to accomplish this style of reporting, that's perfectly fine. So, that may not be as big of an issue.

    Hello,

    Starting with the ISTD report should not change anything from the example. One possible issue with the report in data analysis would be you need to update the report template. If you are using result sets in Chemstation, which is the default, the software saves the template in the result set. So, for example, if I add an IR template to my method called Test.rdl and run or reprocess the result set a copy of the template is now inside the result set. Any further reprocessing or report creation in DA with that data uses the copy of the template inside the result set. This mean if you now edit the master test.rdl template, it will not match the copy inside the result set. However, if you create reports in the review mode it will use the edited template, as it always use the master templates. To update the report template in the result set you need to select it again in the specify report section of the method and overwrite the copy in the result set.

    Marty,

    I fixed the issue between Review and DA reports per your recommendation, so they are now matching. I am still not having my data pull to the report for some reason. I will have to investigate why that is the case. I'm not sure why there would be a discrepancy with this when it pulls in classic reporting. It will not pull compound names, RTs, etc. using any template, let alone the one that I made following your demo.

    Nick,

    Okay that is strange did you reprocess the result set after making the changes to the method? IR reports work with the ACAML file that is created during reprocessing. If you have direct access to the data, you can check for the presence of the sequence.acaml.

    Marty,

    I had not done that. I had been using the recalculate mode when looking at data. I have done that in the past so I could use a unique quantitation method, which may or may not be the issue. However upon reprocessing, the file was created, but the report is still lacking compound names, RTs, etc.

    Hello,

    You still cannot create any IR report even the short_area report? Do you get any kind of message about there being no ACAML file for some of the injections when creating a report in the review mode? Can you check the method and make sure you have standard data processing enabled? You are using the reprocessing workflow not batch analysis, correct?
