The meaning of each message is as follows:
- “Excellent Translation”—this message is displayed when the compounds in the original and translated methods elute at the same %B. Translations for isocratic methods will always be “Excellent.”
- “Peak order may change for very early peaks”*
- “Peak order may change for early peaks”*
- “Peak order may change in the first half of the gradient”*
- “Peak order may change throughout the gradient”*
*These messages are displayed when not all of the compounds in the original and translated methods elute at the same %B during a gradient run. The severity of the discrepancy is reflected in each message. This mismatch occurs when the translated column and method conditions may require adjustments to the instrument’s dwell volume. See the glossary within the software itself for more information about dwell volume.
