Information displays
Below are some examples of configuration displays:
[ EPC1 ] = (INLET) (SS) EPC #1 is used for an inlet of type
split/splitless. It is not available for other uses.
[ EPC3 ] = (DET-EPC) (FID) EPC #3 is controlling detector
gases to an FID.
[ EPC6 ] = (AUX_EPC) (PCM) EPC #6 is controlling a
two- channel pressure control module.
FINLET (OK) 68 watts 21.7 This heater is connected to the
front inlet. Status = OK, meaning that it is ready for use. At
the time that the GC was turned on, the heater was drawing
68 watts and the inlet temperature was 21.7 °C.
[ F-DET ] = (SIGNAL) (FID) The signal board for the front
detector is type FID.
AUX 2 1 watts (No sensor) The AUX 2 heater is either not
installed or is not working properly.
Unconfigured:
Accessory devices requiring GC power or communication
must be assigned these GC resources before they can be
used. To make this hardware element usable, first “To
Unlock the GC Configuration” on page 142 then go to the
Unconfigured parameter and press [Mode/Type] to install it. If
the hardware element you are configuring requires selection
of additional parameters, the GC asks for that selection. If
no parameters are required, press [Enter] at the GC prompt
to install that element. You are required to power the GC off
and then power the GC on to complete this configuration.
After restarting the GC, a message reminding you of this
change and its effect on the default method is displayed. If
needed, change your methods to accommodate the new
hardware.
