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.
