Thermal Aux
See “Unconfigured:” on page 143 and “Ignore Ready =” on

The auxiliary thermal controllers provide up to three
channels of temperature control. These controllers are
labeled Thermal Aux 1, Thermal Aux 2, and Thermal Aux 3.
To assign a GC power source to an Aux thermal zone
Devices such as valve boxes and transfer lines have heaters
which can be plugged into one of several connectors on the
GC. Before use, you must configure these devices so that the
GC knows the type of device plugged into the connector
(inlet heater, detector heater, transfer line heater, and so on)
and how to control it.
This procedure assigns the heater power source to the
Thermal Aux 1, Thermal Aux 2, or Thermal Aux 3
temperature control zone.
1 Unlock the GC configuration. Press [Options], select
Keyboard & Display and press [Enter]. Scroll down to Hard
Configuration Lock and press [Off/No].
2 Press [Config][Aux Temp #] and scroll to Thermal Aux 1,
Thermal Aux 2, or Thermal Aux 3 and press [Enter].
3 With Unconfigured selected, press [Mode/Type], and select:
• Install Heater A1 to configure a valve box heater plugged
into the valve box bracket plug labeled A1.
• Install Heater A2 to configure a valve box heater plugged
into the valve box bracket plug labeled A2.
• If installing a transfer line, scroll to the line which
describes the transfer line type (MSD Transfer, Ion Trap,
RIS Transfer, and so on) and its GC connector (F-DET, A1,
BINLET, and so on). For example, for an MSD transfer
line connected to A2, select Install MSD Transfer A2.
4 Press [Enter] after making the selection.
5 For devices such as a valve box, inlet, or detector,
configuration is complete. When prompted by the GC,
turn the power off then on again. Skip the rest of the
steps in this procedure.
For other devices, next configure the specific device type:
Press [Clear] to skip the reboot for now.
