10.1.1 Method Files

Method files are created using the Smart IQ Laptop software to direct the
instrument on how to collect and analyze samples. Once created and saved, a
Method file can be selected to run samples. Method files are created using the
Method Editor and saved either to a directory on the Laptop or to the HAPSITE
hard drive.

To save a newly created method using the Method Editor, press the Save button at
the bottom of the Method Editor window. The dialog window shown in

Figure 10-1

is displayed. Notice that the default location to save a Method file is to the
HAPSITE.

NOTE: Method files can be saved to the HAPSITE only if the HAPSITE is

connected to the Laptop. Refer to

section 2.2.5, Connect Laptop (if

desired), on page 2-10

for additional information on how to connect the

Laptop to the HAPSITE.
