A mobile app for Android, developed in Unity3D and C# which describes some basic user maintenance steps from the gas chromatograph user manuals. Some of the text and images are sourced from OEM user manuals and are subject to original copyright.
Version 1.0 is focused primarily on the most common configurations of injectors and detectors. As such only the panels for the CAP, PSS and Packed injectors and the FID detector will be included. The column selection panels as well as the remaining injectors, autosamplers and detectors will be added in later versions.
The Splash screen will load first, and then after a short delay load the Main menu panel. From the Main Menu Panel, users have the ability to navigate to the main sections of the app via buttons (Autosamplers, Injectors, Columns, Detectors, Parts & Tools), or use the nav bar buttons (top) to exit the application via the 'X' icon, or pull up a side menu that offers navigation back to the main menu (from anywhere in the app) or an about menu that loads the about splash screen. Additionally when available the bottom navigation bar will have forward and back buttons as well as an info button when enabled (dependent on panel and state).
An example of the overall panel flow for the UI is below:
The Main Menu panel will have a series of buttons representing the main component groups of the Gas Chromatograph to allow navigation through the app:
- Autosampler
- Injectors
- Columns
- Detectors
- Parts and Tools
The Autosampler Menu panel will have a series of buttons representing the main user maintenance procedure sections from the user hardware manual:
- Replacing a Syringe
- Replacing the Vial Locator
- Cleaning the Sample Tray
A later expansion of this app can include navigation to the different types of autosamplers offered as configuration options on the Clarus GC such as the Turbomatrix Headspace, Turbomatrix Headspace Trap, Turbomatrix Automated Thermal Desorber (ATD) or even a CombiPal high throughput autosampler.
