Can I use the ACQUITY auxiliary vial positions V:1 through V:4 in OALogin for blank solutions? - WKB230718

ENVIRONMENT

• MassLynx
• OALogin
• ACQUITY UPLC
• ACQUITY UPLC Sample Manager
• ACQUITY UPLC I-Class
• ACQUITY UPLC H-Class PLUS
• ACQUITY UPLC H-Class PLUS Bio
• ACQUITY UPLC I-Class PLUS
• ACQUITY UPLC M-Class

ANSWER

No. There is no mechanism in OALogin to select the auxiliary vial positions for anything except QC samples.
The vial positions do not have a plate number, so the vials cannot be referenced in OALogin.
The vial positions V:1, V:2, V:3, and V:4 can be used for QC samples because the QC setup window recognizes the naming format for these vial positions.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

ACQUITY sample managers have additional vial positions at the ends of the tray carousels. See this article for more details:
