FACES Scheduler Policies
The faces scheduler will be used to reserve time on the Bruker AMX-300 NMR. The scheduler can be accessed here
- Between 9 AM and 5 PM, Monday through Friday, only 60 minutes of consecutive (4 x 15-min. slots) NMR time may be reserved in advance. If, while using the instrument, you find that you need more time, you may sign up for an additional 30 minutes of time (ONLY IF no one else has requested the time or no one else is waiting). If additional 15 or 30 minute blocks are still open you may continue to reserve them. As you use additional time, log in to the scheduler and reserve the time.
- After 5 PM Monday - Friday, any block of time (until 9 AM) can be reserved. This is a privilege to allow long-term acquisitions (ie 13C runs, 2Ds, etc.) and not as a way to reserve the spectrometer for a single proton spectrum sometime during the night. Long-term acquisitions take precedence.
- The instrument can be reserved for an entire weekend for a single long-term experiment, but you must inform NMR Facility Manager, Dr. Beard.
- You must use the time you have reserved - do not reserve 60 minutes of time to run a single proton spectrum. Do not reserve the instrument overnight for a short experiment. If your signup time exceeds your experiment time you will be charged for the signup time.
