Creating and Modifying Programs
Creating a Tandem Program (including Bypass Mode) for an UltiMate 3000 HPLC System
A program for operating an UltiMate 3000 x2 Dual-Gradient HPLC System (consisting of a DGP-3600, WPS-3000SL, TCC-3200 and VWD-3400(RS)) in Tandem Operation mode with enabled Bypass Mode could look as follows:
