How to connect the eDAQ C4D system to the WynSep Wyn-CE instrument.

Equipment Required

Choice of Software

The data from both C4D and UV-Visible detectors can be recorded and displayed in real time, using either the eDAQ PowerChrom software or the WynSep data acquisition software. Choose the:

  • ER225 C4D Data System to use PowerChrom software. The analog output of the WynSep UV detector is connected to the analog input of the ER225. PowerChrom software records the data from both detectors.
  • ER815 C4D Detector, to use WynSep data acquisition software. The analog output from the ER815 is connected to the WynSep instrument, so the WynSep data acquisition software records data from both detectors.

Installing the C4D Headstage in the WynSep Wyn-CE Cartridge

It’s easy to mount the C4D headstage inside the WynSep Wyn-CE cartridge. Simply thread the capillary through the channel in the side of the C4D headstage and fix in place.

You should ensure that the C4D headstage and its flat grey cable are at least 1 cm away from the capillary as it loops inside the cartridge. This is to prevent the high voltage inside the capillary from shorting through the headstage and its cable, which are both electrically grounded.

You should also ensure that the C4D hardware unit is connected to an electrical socket which is grounded. Connect the C4D hardware directly to the electrical socket in the wall, not using an electrical power board.
