Abstract
EZChrom Elite version 3.3 features full control of the Agilent 1200
Series LC and Agilent 1200 Series SL LC systems. EZChrom Elite is the
compliant, scalable, multivendor instrument control software from Agilent
Technologies. Besides supporting all functions of the Agilent 1200 Series
Rapid Resolution LC (RRLC) system, it provides an interactive instrument
status view and a user interface to add samples to a worklist. EZChrom

Introduction
EZChrom Elite is the scalable
software solution from Agilent
Technologies for compliance and
multivendor support. Use of a sin-
gle software package for as many
applications as possible helps to
reduce training costs of operators,
diminishes the need for multiple
upgrades, lowers IT efforts, and
enables comparability of results.
This Technical Note describes
which modules and functions
of the Agilent 1200 Series RRLC
systems are now controlled by
EZChrom Elite 3.3 software, as
well as additional new features
that are available.
For example, EZChrom Elite pro-
vides an interactive instrument
status view, where instrument
setpoints can be changed quickly
without updating the full method.
A full-color view shows informa-
tion such as the run state of each
LC module. A walk-up sample
entry screen facilitates adding
samples to the run queue, which
is especially useful for routine
repetitive sample analyses.
Latest EZChrom Elite provides
more control and status feedback
1. More functionality in instrument setup
The instrument setup dialog has a
new layout and portrays many
more functions than were previ-
ously available in EZChrom Elite.
Table 1 lists all supported addi-
tional 1200 Series modules, includ-
ing the advanced options.
