Users
When SamplerSight-Pharma is first installed, a Default User and an Administrator user
are created in the Administrators Group. The Administrators Group has all privileges
enabled. Both users start without passwords, but they should be assigned a unique
password as soon as possible.
Each user belongs to a Group which determines the users privileges. In other words, a set
of privileges is set for each Group and any member of that Group has all the privileges of
the Group. Each user should be assigned a unique password. Users can be added,
modified and deleted if the current user has that privilege. Any user can be deleted with
the following exceptions:
The Default User cannot be deleted.
The last user in the Administrators Group cannot be deleted.
A user report is available that shows all the configured users.

When configuring a sample, entering information into the Sample Label fields is optional.
The program will prompt for information prior to initiating each sample, allowing
dynamic entry of variable identification data.
In cases where the information is static entering it during the initial sample configuration
stage will automatically populate the field each time the sample is run. An example of this
case would be if more than one instrument is owned, but they are located in different
areas. In this case it might be desirable to track the data generated by each instrument over
time to ensure consistent operator behavior. Entering the instrument serial number would
suffice, but using the actual physical location in the building might make it easier to
recognize which instrument generated the data.

Stop button is clicked.
Repeat Count
Repeat the sample x (integer) times. Ensure that Continuous Mode is not checked.
Discard Count
Discard x (integer) samples before collecting data on the next sample.
Sample Delay
The delay, in seconds, between samples. Set the field to zero (0) to have no delay
between samples. Sample delay is measured from the start of a sample to the start of
the next sample. This provides consistent start times. For example a set of data can be
created from samples starting every five minutes (300 seconds).
NOTE: If Sample Delay is less than the run time of the sample, no delay will occur.
Dilution Factor (1/x)
If a dilution was required to reduce the counts below the coincidence limit of the
particle counter, enter the factor here. SamplerSight-Pharma will report all data as the
undiluted value of the sample. Entering one (1) will result in no dilution. Entering
zero (0) is not allowed.
Drain Rate (ml/min)
The rate at which the sampler drains the syringe.
Fill/Flow Rate (ml/min) The rate at which the sampler draws fluid through the sensor. This parameter is
specific to the sensor. Use the default unless there has been a clear directive no to do
so. The sensor is calibrated at a specific flow rate.
Syringe Volume (ml)
The total volume of the syringe currently installed on the sampler.
Tare Volume (ml)
The volume of fluid remaining in the sample tubing. Can be calculated using formula
for volume of a cylinder or estimated at 1ml for the standard sample tube length
supplied with the instrument.
Sample Volume (ml)
The actual volume drawn through the sensor. This volume can be greater than the
syringe volume. In these cases, the sampler will draw multiple strokes of the syringe
until reaching the sample volume.

Sample Interval (secs)
The user-set data collection interval.
Configure Sample Channels

The Sample Configuration windows is very similar for all instruments. The differences
will be in the number of channels, the channels that cannot be edited, and the particle size
in a channel. The LiQuilaz S02s Sample Configuration window, Channels tab
described below will represent the instructions for all instruments.
About channel settings:
Some channels may be predetermined and unchanged. Also, some channels are gray,
meaning they cannot be changed.
Items in the Enabled and Size columns that are shaded cannot be changed.
The items that are shaded will vary depending on the sensor used with the sampler.
Channel sizes must be in ascending order and without breaks in the list of sizes.
To collect a channels data, its Enabled check box must be filled.
The particle size channels configured here will determine what appears in the Data
Configurations window, Channels tab.
>> To configure the LiQuilaz S02s channels:
1 Click the Channels tab in the Sample Configuration window (see Figure 5-6).
Figure 5-6 LiQuilaz S02 Sample Configuration window, Channels tab

Chapter 6
Limits
A user-defined limit can be set for the acceptable number of particles in a sample channel.
While limits are set and enabled, SamplerSight-Pharma will notify the user when the limit
has been reached in a sample.
All limits use the same normalization and summation selection that is entered in the
Limits tab in the Sample Configuration window (see Figure 6-3 on page 6-3). Each
limit has a specific channel, value type, comparison operator, and value. An unlimited
number of limits can be defined, and multiple limits can be defined for each channel.
Limits are defined in each sample configuration.
Run-time Limits Notification

When enabled, the limits are checked when the sample configuration is run. If a value
matches one of the specified criteria the following is done:
The channel that meets the limit criteria will be displayed with a red background in the
channel upper left quadrant of the display.
The red background will only be displayed for the final (slow) sample not the
intermediate (fast) samples.
The red background will not persist for the next sample. It will be reset and only go red
again if the next sample matches the limit criteria.
An Alarm Status field in the lower left quadrant of the display will display Fail in red.
This field lets the user know that an alarm has been generated in this series.
This indication will remain visible for the rest of the series.
The Series Status field is only displayed when limits are defined in the sample
configuration being run. The field will display Pass if no limits parameters have been
reached or exceeded.
An entry is added to the activity log for every limit that is crossed.
Limits Reports Notification

The data reports include a status column that states whether the channel passed or failed
its limits criteria. This column is found in the Histogram Data, Tabular Data, Statistics
Horizontal Data, and Statistics Vertical Data reports.

Calibration
SamplerSight-Pharma includes a Calibration Wizard which guides the user through the
calibration process and enables the following operations:
Calibration of the sensor to all the particle sizes the sampler can detect
Verification of the calibration
View, print, or export the calibration data
What Instruments Can Be User-Calibrated?

Currently only the LiQuilaz-E20 and E15 sensors support the Calibration Wizard. Usercalibration is unavailable for the other model sensors.
When Should the Instrument Be Calibrated?

The sensor is calibrated at the factory and is delivered in good condition, baring damage
during shipping. After delivery, the customers calibration schedule will determine the
frequency of calibration.
Prerequisites
Training from a qualified Particle Measuring Systems representative
Near-monodispersed polystyrene latex (PSL) calibration particles of the sizes 2, 5, 10,
15, 20, 25, and 30 microns included in the Pharmaceutical Calibration Kit
