Status/control tray
The status/control tray provides details on the current status of the GC, the current sequence
and method (if connected to an Agilent data system), the time remaining for the current
operation being performed by the GC, run controls, and so on.
The status/control tray is color coded to reflect the run or ready status of the GC:
• Green - Ready for a run
• Yellow - Not Ready or Shutdown
• Blue - Run in Progress
• Purple - Preparing Sample
• Teal- Sleep mode
• Red- Error
Any Early Maintenance Feedback (EMF) flags are also displayed. See “Early Maintenance
Feedback (EMF)”.
The tray can be expanded by selecting the up arrow on the tray. See Figure 11.

The Stop control immediately terminates the run. If the
GC is in the middle of a run, the data from that run may be
lost.
