Nine Sample Changer Setup:
When larger amounts of sample are available, or if odd shaped samples
with a flat surface are to be analyzed the best choice of setup is the
9 sample changer. This setup utilizes a Reflection or Debye-Scherrer
setup.
In
this setup up to nine samples can be preloaded in plastic sample cups
of different sizes (depending on the amount of sample available). Once
loaded the handling of the samples is fully computerized and no manual
adjustments are necessary any more, making this the ideal setup for rapid
and automated collection of a whole series of datasets and for remote
data collection.

Capillary Setup:
When only smaller amounts amounts of sample are available, or if the
sample has to be kept under inert gas the data collection is best
performed in Capillary mode (Transmission or Bragg Brentano setup).

In the capillary setup each sample has to ne loaded and centered
manually, which makes it a less suitable setup for automated or remote
data collection.
