LC Driver Ver.1.0 for Waters Empower™ Software
The Prominence Series high-performance liquid chromatograph HPLC features fast sample injection, high detection sensitivity performance, low sample carryover, etc, and other functions that surpass current HPLC technology. (Prominence Overview)
Control of Shimadzu’s Prominence Series HPLC by Waters®’ EmpowerTM / EmpowerTM2 chromatography data software is now available through a collaboration between Waters and Shimadzu utilizing the “Open Interface Portal (OIP)” for multi-vendor hardware control. Shimadzu's Prominence now seamlessly operates within the Empower software environment.
Seamless control of Prominence
Prominence method editor screen
Prominence control parameters are set through the Prominence 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.
- Creation and modification of instrument control methods
- Report output of instrument control methods
- Direct control
- Auto purging
- System check
- Confirmation screen of instrument configuration
Digital data acquisition for enhanced reliability
Status data plotting screen
In addition to seamless system control, the detector signal is digitally transmitted to the data system. This eliminates the necessity to add an A/D converter for analogue data acquisition, making system validation easier and more robust. Photodiode array detector 3D data analysis and spectral processing are also available through Empower. Furthermore, system status information, such as pump pressures and column oven temperature, may be monitored and recorded along with chromatograms, making your analytical data even more reliable.
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. This gives you full confidence in the compliance of the system to regulations such as GLP/GMP and US FDA 21 CFR Part 11.
