• Abort: Abort the sequence. The HS stops all vial
processing, for the current sample vial and all other
sample vials. For HS models with a 111 vial tray, the HS
returns all sample vials to the tray, beginning with the
sample vial which had the problem. To recover, check the
logs to determine which sample vial had the problem.
Resolve the problem, then create a new sequence and
restart.
Note that sequence actions do not override other potential
problems, such as a hardware fault, that can interrupt a
sequence.
Sequence actions and data systems
The choice of Agilent data system impacts sequence actions.
Different data system features make method- based sequence
actions unnecessary. Most method sequence actions behave
normally when using a data system. The exceptions are
listed below.
When using an MS or MSD
If using an MS or MSD, select either Abort or Skip for the
Check for ready sequence action. The MS or MSD and the
GC/MS Productivity ChemStation will not acquire data
unless the entire system is ready when the start command
occurs. Using Continue can cause lost data. You must include
any extra time required for MS or MSD solvent delay and
other factors into the GC Cycle time parameter.
Barcode reader sequence actions
When using a data system, the data system ignores any
method barcode reader sequence actions. Instead, the data
system controls the barcode reader sequence behavior
directly. Make choices about handling barcode reader errors
in the data system’s sequence.
Abort stops only the HS. The GC and data system may complete
processing for any previously-injected sample.
