GC Showing Not Ready Status

If your GC does not reach the ready status, check the status messages displayed by the GC. Ensure all gases are available and verify the pressures, flows, and temperatures. Confirm all set points are reached for the oven, injectors, and detectors. For FID, check if the flame is on. Verify the GC methods and configuration, and check the ready delay. Lastly, check the GC handshaking parameters.

Resolution

  • Check the status displayed by the GC for any message.
  • Check if all gases are available, check pressures, flows and temperatures on the GC.
  • Check on GC status if all set points are reached (check the oven, injectors, detectors) With FID ,check if flame is on Verify the GC methods and the configuration, check the ready delay.
  • Check the GC handshaking parameters.
