6.7.2 Viewing Real-Time Data with Profinia Software
The Profinia system does not require software and a computer to operate the instrument;
individual data points are displayed on the run screen. However, with Profinia software
(optional) installed on a computer and connected directly to the instrument through the
USB port on the back of the instrument (Figure 6.32), the run chromatogram can be
viewed in real time. The USB cable for instrument-to-computer connection is included with
the software.
Note: The front USB port does not output real-time data. The front port is used to download
the run data files onto a portable memory device when the run is completed, or from system
memory using the Export Data function in the Data/Utilities menu (section 9.1).
To collect real-time data:
1. Connect the USB cable to the USB port on the back of the instrument and to the
computer.
