Thermo Scientific™ SII for Empower Software

Description

Incorporate and operate Thermo Scientific UHPLC, HPLC, GC, and IC instruments within other vendors' software platforms with the Thermo Scientific™ Standard Instrument Integration (SII) for Empower 3 Software plug-in. The SII for Empower 3 plug-in is based on the Thermo Scientific™ Chromeleon™ Chromatography Data System (CDS) and offers unique and smart features that deliver maximum ease-of-use, reliability, and performance. It also enables Thermo Scientific™ chromatography systems to be operated and controlled by Waters™ Empower™ 3 CDS software.

While Chromeleon CDS is the recommended software for control of Thermo Scientific UHPLC, HPLC, GC, and IC instruments due to its maximum ease of use, reliability, and performance, other vendors' CDS software can also incorporate and operate these instruments with the SII for Empower™ 3 Software plug-in.

The SII for Empower™ Software installs and uses portions of Chromeleon CDS, such as the Services Manager, Instrument Configuration Manager, Instrument View, and Instrument Method Editor, to deliver flawless integration of Thermo Scientific LC, IC, and GC instrumentation into Empower™ 3 CDS without loss of functionality. Instrument control, data acquisition, and data processing are performed completely under Empower™ 3 Software.

Configure your instruments
Up to four instruments can be configured per Empower™ node using the standard Chromeleon Instrument Configuration Manager.

Control your instruments
SII for Empower™ Software provides a complete set of commands because they are present under native Chromeleon CDS control. For the user, this means that all the Chromeleon CDS tools and advanced features, such as preparing the next sample during an ongoing analysis, can be implemented to increase productivity and receive more data with fewer injections.

SII for Empower™ controls the following systems:

• Thermo Scientific™ Vanquish™ HPLC and UHPLC systems
• Thermo Scientific™ UltiMate™ 3000 HPLC systems
• Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-6000 HPIC™ system
• Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-5000 HPIC™ system
• Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC™ system
• Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Aquion™ system
• Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1300 GC systems

Monitoring instrument status within Empower™ can be performed using the Empower™ Control Panel. Here, an enhanced SII Instrument View is easily accessed to provide further options to control and monitor the instrument and its modules.

Instrument Methods
Setting up an instrument method is simple, intuitive, and fast due to the SII for Empower™ Instrument Method Wizard and Editor, both of which are integrated into the Instrument Method Editor of Empower™. The wizard guides the user through all modules, enabling the entry of all necessary information, while the editor allows the review and modification of all aspects of a method.

Process your data
Complete data processing takes place inside Empower™ Software, which allows you to use all functionalities as you would normally, for example, overlay of chromatograms or other channels like pressure traces. The Empower™ user experience does not change for any data processing aspect.
