Meanings of these fonts are: Instrument (blue text) marks the name of the window, to which the text refers. OpenFile (italics)describesthecommandsandnamesoffields in Clarity,parametersthatcan be entered into them or a window or dialog name (when you already are in the topic describing the window). WORK1 (capitals) indicates the name of the file and/or directory. ACTIVE (capital italics) marks the state of the station or its part. The bold text is sometimes also used for important parts of the text and the name of the Clarity station. Moreover, there are text sections written in format other than normal text. These sections are formatted as follows: Note: Notifiesthereaderofpossiblyinterestinginformation.

INT9 isan internal 24-bitA/D converter card thatmeasuresthe voltages of chromatographic and electrochemical detectors. Fig 1: INT9 Brief technicaloverview • Up to 4 dataacquisition channels on one card (one and two channel versionsare also available). • The channels are completely independent sigma delta integrating A/D converters,used for processing positive and negative voltages. • 4 digital inputs. • 8 digital outputs.The firstfour are also designed as relaycontacts. • PCISlot. • Excellentreliabilityand temperature stability. The INT9 card of integration converters is a modernized successorof the PCIcard INT7. 1.1 A/D convertertypes in general Prior to collecting and processing the chromatographic signal by a computer, the analog signal of the detector must first be converted to digital form using an analog/digital (A/D)converter. In principle,there are three typesofA/D converters – sampling, integrating and ..(Delta-Sigma) -with continuous integration). The INT9 card uses Delta-Sigma integration. -1 1INT9acquisitioncard ClarityHardware Advantages of the INT9 A/D converter • No loss ofinputsignal during integration. There are no time delaysduring which the converterfails to integrate the inputsignal. • No continuous servicing of the input analog switches, which would otherwise cause errors (offset,noise). • Substantially smaller amounts of data entering the computer due to individual data items already representing partial integrals. -2 INT9A/Dconverter 2Requirements 2 Requirements The INT9 internal PCI A/D Converter can be used with the Clarity software on PC’s using OS described in Tab1 on pg 3.
