Seamless control of Shimadzu LC
Shimadzu LC control parameters are set through the Shimadzu instrument method editor embedded in the Empower software. These parameters are stored and handled as standard Empower method files so that the instruments are directly controlled from Empower.
Digital data acquisition for enhanced reliability
In addition to seamless system control, the detector signal is digitally transmitted to the data system.
Regulatory compliance support
Full system control, including autosampler control, uses Empower sample set methods, and data processing is integrated with Empower software so that the audit trail functions of Empower software are fully utilized.
