LabSolutions ™ External Control Software LabSolutions Sync Integrate Third-Party Software for Pretreatment Units and Synthesis Systems with HPLC/GC/LC-MS/GC-MS Labor-saving and automation initiatives in laboratories continue to advance each year. To reduce costs even further, it is important not just to reduce instrument analysis times and pretreatment times individually, but to automate the workflow in its entirety. LabSolutions Sync integrates third-party software for pretreatment units and synthesis systems with LabSolutions batch analyses and status information, enabling automation of the entire instrument workflow, leading to overall labor savings and cost reductions. Data acquisition/ Data analysis Automatic Execution of a Realtime Batch This software synchronizes with batch or text files for data acquisition, output by third-party software for pretreatment units or synthesis systems, and executes LabSolutions batch analysis automatically. After the batch analysis is complete, the results are output by LabSolutions. The third-party software can detect this activity, and proceed to the next operation. As a result, the software enables automation by integrating the pretreatment unit or synthesis system with the Shimadzu HPLC, GC, LC-MS, or GC-MS. Integration of Instrument Status Status and instrument parameter information in LabSolutions can be integrated with pretreatment units and synthesis systems. This enables the third-party software to recognize the status of LabSolutions and take appropriate control. Automatic Shutdown* If data acquisition is not performed within a certain amount of time, the program automatically shuts down the instrument, preventing it from running continuously. *Support for LabSolutions LC/GC, LabSolutions LCMS, and LabSolutions GCMS only
