Intelligent Method Translator

The Intelligent Method Translator app (iMTA) converts non- Alliance iS HPLC System methods into Alliance iS HPLC System methods. The method translation process maps parameters stored in Empower instrument methods to the system's instrument settings. Translated instrument methods are viewable in Empower's Instrument Method Editor.

iMTA can translate instrument methods that run on the following:

• Waters: Alliance HPLC, Arc HPLC, and ACQUITY Arc
• Agilent: Select Agilent 1100, 1200, and 1260 modules

The Waters instrument modules whose parameters are mapped include Pump, Sample Manager, Column Compartment, and Detector. Third-party mappings are specific to their instrument modules.

If the iMTA is installed, open it through Empower's Apps menu. For more information, see the online documentation for the Intelligent Method Translator.
