3 Software Issues
3.1 Data Acquisition (HyStar 3.2 SR2)

3.1.1 Common Issues


3.1.1.1 Multiple injections in one sample line: If acquisition is interrupted between
injections this line can be started again.
3.1.1.2 If psClient (ProteinsScape) is installed on the PC, HyStar has limited the number of
injections to 1.

3.1.2 Support of Agilent LC system


3.1.2.1 Convert HardwareSetup from version 3.1 to 3.2 SR2: Sometimes the G1313A
settings dialog is not displayed after clicking the 'Configuration...' button.
Workaround:
a. restart HyStar
b. define new name for the hardware setup
c. select all requested devices again (incl. required parameters)
d. save this file as active Hardware Setup
3.1.2.2 Convert Hardware Setup from versions older than 3.2 SR1 to 3.2.SR2: Please update
your existing Hardware Setup file (HSS) by connecting the LC-modules once more in
the ‘Settings’ dialog and saving it.

Version 1.3 SR1 Page: 6 of 9 Bruker Daltonics


Release Notes
ESI Compass 1.3 SR1 for amaZon

3.1.2.3 Agilent 2position-10portvalve G1163A Connections (“1->2”, “1->10”) corresponding


to valve positions are displayed incorrectly in HyStar’s method editor as well as in the
acquisition window and should be ignored. Any value called “port 1 / 2” or “pos. 1 / 2”
is correct and should be used for setting valve positions directly or within the timetable.
The edit line for the timetable only allows the selection of “10->1” and “1->2”, those
options that lead to a correct (“port x”) value in the timetable must be used.
“Pos. 1” or “port 1” always corresponds to physical connection “10-1” and “port 2”or
“pos.2” corresponds to “1-2”.

3.1.3 Support of Hitachi LaChrom Elite system


3.1.3.1 The software module for control of Hitachi VWD does not send an error message to
HyStar if a leak is detected.
3.1.3.2 Older Hitachi methods containing a different column port (2 or 3) don’t work in
3.2.44. The column port is not switched if the method is loaded. Please save the
method once more and it will work.

3.1.4 Support of Dionex Ultimate 3000 system


3.1.4.1 If a prerun time is specified in the Sample Table of Hystar, this is not taken into
account by the timing of the Dionex DCMS link program.
This results in the retention (system) times being different. So, any time based events
in the DCMS Dionex program occur early by the amount of time specified by the
prerun. Workaround: Don't use the prerun time definition in the HyStar Sample Table.
3.1.4.2 3D data acquisition with a Dionex PDA detector
For acquisition of 3D data with a Dionex PDA detector, the file “PluginControl.ocx”
installed with the HyStar package has to be exchanged.
To install the new PluginControl.ocx follow the instructions below:
1. Close all open Compass/HyStar software.
2. Backup the original PluginControl.ocx file which is located in the HyStar-bin
directory (usually C:\Program Files\Bruker Daltonik\HyStar\bin).
3. Copy the updated PluginControl.ocx file from the DCMSLink installation CD (CD
Drive:\Additional Files\) to the above location.
4. Restart Compass/HyStar as appropriate.
The updated file is only compatible with DCMSLink 2.0.

3.2 Data Processing (HyStarPP 3.2 SR2)


3.2.1 In HyStarPP Report Setup, ‘Auto Peak Picking’ should be unchecked for automatic
reporting after an analysis.

Version 1.3 SR1 Page: 7 of 9 Bruker Daltonics


Release Notes
ESI Compass 1.3 SR1 for amaZon

3.2.2 Ultimate3000 users: Do not open the *.u2 files created in an analysis with Ultimate
3000 and VWD.
These files are empty and create an error if they are opened in HyStarPP. Ultimate 3000
UV data are stored as *.unt-files, which can be opened in HyStarPP.

3.2.3 2D-UV (*.u2) files are not properly displayed in HyStarPP.


The UV spectrum in the upper data window is not updated. As a work-around open and
close any menu item; this will update the UV spectrum display. Alternatively, use
DataAnalysis 4.0 to display 2D-UV data.

3.3 Data Acquisition (trapControl 7.0)


3.3.1 Please make sure that the CI source is switched on if you have any ETD method
somewhere in your HyStar Sample Table. Otherwise HyStar will not start the method
and stays in ‘Waiting for system ready’. The only way out is to use the Process Cleaner.

3.3.2 It is not possible to load methods or analyses from esquire/HCT.

3.4 Data Processing (DataAnalysis 4.0 SP2)


3.4.1 While acquiring an analysis it is possible to open the partial analysis in
DataAnalysis. Do not open multiple instances of this analysis, especially after the
acquisition is completed. First close the partially opened analysis and then open the
analysis again after acquisition is completed.

3.4.2 The automation command 'Analysis.FindDissect' will not validate members of the
'Compounds' and 'Chromatograms' collection. Do not use a variable containing a
'Compound' or 'Chromatogram' object across an 'Analysis.FindDissect' call.
For example the following code fragment will cause an script error:
Chrom = Analysis.Chromatograms(1)
Analysis.FindDissect
MsgBox Chrom.Name '<--- this line will break since 'Chrom' is invalid

3.4.3 The automation command ‘Form.Close’ terminates the script. Only place this
command at the very end of the script (last line).

3.5 LibraryEditor 4.0


3.5.1 ETD and PTR spectra are handled as common MSn fragment spectra. The ETD or
PTR information is not contained in the mass-spectral libraries.

3.6 QuantAnalysis 2.0


3.6.1 If Calibration Blocks are interrupted by a Sample, Blank or Quality Control, the
software will assume that the next calibration sample in the sequence will start a new
calibration block. The Calibration Type currently allows choosing between New and
Replace in the Worktable.

3.6.2 For importing the correct values for Inj.Vol. and Dil.Factor with a
HyStarSequenceFile (*.seq), the decimal symbol in your language settings must be a
point or period (.).

3.7 Report Designer 4.5


3.7.1 The F1 button is not working. Use the Help Menu to launch online help.
