All versions of Validate  including Validate XP offer the same easy to use graphical interface for Sequence and Protocol loading, initiating and monitoring the synthesis on up to eight different instruments. 

Utilize your original protocol editor to maintain your protocols. Original protocols or the custom protocols you've developed over the years still work with ValidateXP ! Your old sequence files are compatible as well. 

ValidateXP has many advanced features that allow label printing and Certificate of Analysis generation based on actual run data. Automatic Sequence Statistics are calculated during sequence submission and printing.

The software tracks all synthesis parameters and stores the parameters in a database format that is compatible with most database, spreadsheet and word processing software programs.

Sequence loading  

Validate XP is fast when it comes to loading a run. Sequence loading is performed by either clicking on a column image or dragging and dropping a sequence file from a common directory listing onto a column image or instrument image. The system responds by displaying {flashing} the type and color-coded column that should be physically loaded onto the synthesizer. When the column is loaded and all reagents are checked a simple click is all it takes to initiate the run. The progress of the synthesis can be checked at any time by moving the cursor over the column image or instrument image of interest and the full status will be displayed.

If a trityl monitor is available, trityl histograms can be displayed at any time by a single click.

Validate Works with Newer PC's

You do not need an adapter to install and operate Validate XP if you are presently using the old PC software that came with your Expedite. Both, the original Expedite PC Software and Validate XP use the same port and cables to connect to the Expedite(s). However, in a lot of cases, users have upgraded to Windows XP or Vista and find that the old software does not work or that their old computer fails and that when they purchase a replacement PC they find it does not have the old ISA slots that the old communications board (sea Level) plugs into. So in these cases we utilize a Telebyte adapter which converts a standard RS232 (9-pin comm port) to the type required by the Expedite(RS422). If you purchase a new computer you should make sure that it has one of these standard comm ports. Be aware, many new computers do not have a standard Serial port and have substituted USB ports instead. If you only have USB ports on your new PC we have a solution. Purchase a USB to RS422 adapter from the link above.
