Jason,
 
You can close each changeover valve to the waste turbo by holding down the keyboard control key followed by clicking on the valve.

Subject: [ISOGEOCHEM] How to isolate changeover valve on Finnigan 252

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to close all the valves in the changeover block in a Finnigan 252 using Isodat 2.0?  I need them all closed for maintenance.   Seems like it should be do-able but they appear to have made the software completely dummy proof.
If there is no software solution, I figure I can just remove air pressure to the valves manually.  My assumption is that they are normally closed valves.  Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks, Jason
