Software
T
he SIS Thermal Desorption Software included
provides visualization and control of all thermal desorp-
tion operations through a user-friendly graphical user
interface. The user may configure system and thermal desorption
methods settings (e.g. times and temperatures) as well as moni-
tor the system status (e.g. temperatures and pressures) during a
run.
The Thermal Desorption Software can be used fully indepen-
dent of the GC data system, or it can be fully integrated with cer-
tain GC data systems (e.g. Agilent ChemStation
TM
or Thermo
Xcalibur
TM
). When the software is integrated with ChemStation,
thermal desorption parameters get stored directly into the current
ChemStation method so that GC and thermal desorption method
settings are linked. The run is initiated from ChemStation, and
methods may be changed between samples to provide different
desorption parameters for different samples. For example, a sep-
arate high temperature bakeout or blank method can be setup
and run between samples to assure the system is clean for the
next sample. The software operates in Microsoft Windows 95, NT,
and XP operating systems.
