Commands and Tips for Thermo Scientific Devices
 Finnigan/TSP: FL2000 and FL3000 Fluorescence Detectors: Different Names in Firmware and Chromeleon
For consistency reasons, the names of some Chromeleon properties and commands are different from the names used in the instrument's firmware:
| 
 Instrument  | 
 Chromeleon  | 
 Description  | 
| 
 Lamp Status: On, Off, Run, Off@End  | 
 Lamp: On, Off  | 
 The instrument provides two additional lamp modes: Run (The lamp is turned on at the beginning of the sample run; it is turned off at the end of the run.) The device driver does not support these modes because you can control the lamp by the corresponding commands in the PGM File.)  | 
| 
 Scan  | 
 Scan  | 
 This command corresponds to 'Scan' entry on the instrument's COMMANDS menu (manual scanning).  | 
| 
 Scan Zero  | 
 ScanAutozero  | 
 The Chromeleon command corresponds to the 'Scan Zero' command on the instrument's COMMANDS menu (manual baseline scanning). The first ScanAutozero command that is included in the PGM File at a non-negative time is not executed immediately. The time is downloaded to the instrument as Autozero Time parameter. The instrument performs the Autozero command at this time.  | 
| 
 Autozero Time  | 
 Supported via the ScanAutozero command (see above)  | 
 
  | 
| 
 Auto Spectra: On, Off  | 
 
  | 
 Chromeleon sets this parameter always to Off because Chromeleon can perform automatic scanning more reliably by using Trigger Commands.  | 
| 
 Zero on l Change  | 
 AutozeroOnWlChange  | 
 
  | 
| 
 Detection Type: Fluor Phos  | 
 DetectionMode:  | 
 In addition, it is possible to measure the Chemiluminescence. Use one of the two modes and turn off the lamp.  | 
 Tip:  
After a Reset command, it takes 90 s until the detector is ready to execute another command.
