About GC Status in the Software Keypad
When the GC is ready to begin a run, the display screen
shows STATUS Ready for Injection. Alternatively, when a
component of the GC is not ready to begin a run, the Not
Ready indicator on the software keypad is lit. Press [Status]
to see a message explaining why the GC is not ready.
Indicators
A lit indicator means:
• The current progress of a run (Pre Run or Run).
• Items which may require attention (Not Ready, Service
Due, and Run Log.
• The GC is controlled by an Agilent data system
(Remote).
• The GC is in gas saver mode (Gas Saver).
Error conditions
If a problem occurs, a status message appears. If the
message indicates broken hardware, more information may
be available. Press the applicable component key (for
example, Front Det, Oven, or Front Inlet).
Before resuming GC operations, investigate and resolve the cause
of the hydrogen shutdown. See Hydrogen Shutdown in the
Troubleshooting manual for details.
