Troubleshooting and Test Functions
Shutdown
Shutdown
An external instrument has generated a shut-down signal on the remote line.
The autosampler continually monitors the remote input connectors for status
signals. A LOW signal input on pin 4 of the remote connector generates the
error message.
Probable Causes • Leak detected in an external instrument with a remote connection to the
system.
• Shut-down in an external instrument with a remote connection to the
system.
• The degasser failed to generate sufficient vacuum for solvent degassing.
Suggested Actions ❏ Fix the leak in the external instrument before restarting the autosampler.
❏ Check external instruments for a shut-down condition.
❏ Check the degasser for an error condition. Refer to the Reference Manual
for the Agilent 1100 Series degasser.
