Known Problem Report as of Mar 14 2017 10:27AM

Preface
-------------------------
This Software Status Bulletin (SSB) documents all known problems in the software
product designated above. The SSB is derived from Known Problem Reports (KPR)
which result from user problems that have been classified as documentation
problems or software defects. When a KPR is written, an identifying number is
assigned to it, and the KPR is added to the next edition of the SSB.

User inputs that have been classified as Enhancement Requests are not documented
in the SSB. User problems that have been submitted, but that have not been
classified by the time the SSB is generated are not included in the SSB.

How to use the SSB
-------------------------
When you experience a problem with a product, first check this SSB to see if the
problem has been reported already, and if there is a temporary workaround
available for the problem, or if the problem has already been fixed by a new
revision. If the problem is not listed in this SSB then you may wish to report
it to the Response Center or to your field support representative.


To determine if your problem is documented in this SSB, first look in the
Keyword Index section of the SSB. Under each keyword is a listing of one-line
descriptions of related KPRs. If any of these sound like yours, locate the KPR
# in the Known Problem Reports section of the SSB, and read the full KPR. The
KPRs in the Known Problem Reports section are sorted by KPR #.


There are two sections in the SSB:
Keyword Index: This index is categorized by keyword. For each KPR there is a
brief description and a KPR #. A KPR may be associated with more than one
keyword.


Known Problem Reports: This section contains KPRs, with all the available
information relevant to the problem. KPRs in this section are sorted by KPR #.

QEDIT NEXT FILE opens with wrong trace

Problem:

QEDIT NEXT FILE opens with wrong trace when evaluating SIM/SCAN data files and using a qdb with compounds from as well the scan trace as the sim trace.

How to reproduce the phenomenon?
- copy simscan.d (and save as simscan2.d)

- Open msdemo\simscan.d and build a qdb with cmpd #1 from the scan trace and cmp #2 from the sim trace. check if you have quant results. Same for simscan2.d .

- go into QEDIT and check cmpd #2 (datasim.ms loaded)

- click on File - NEXT FILE; simscan2.d will be opened and cmp #1 is extracted from the datasim.ms trace instead of the data.ms trace.

One-line Description:

Reference Spectra is checked but not shown in Qedit for all compounds, but exist

Problem:

Go to the Continuing Calibration pull down in Data Analysis and select Update Reference Spectra. The Reference Spectra get updated from the scan data even with SIM quantitation.

Temporary Solution:

First workaround:
Go into EasyID and manually update the reference spectra. In EasyID mode go to the Spectrum pull down and select Update Reference Spectra. This step has to be repeated for every compound.

PSL: G1732 aborts PAL cycle/sequence when PAL cycle exceeds GC oven

Problem:

Any PAL cycle/syringe whose functions exceed the actual GC runtime aborts.
Adding a postrun time to the oven does NOT override this. Thus, the specified number of PAL postrun washes fail to execute. 

Examples: Set GC oven to 1 minute, MS solvent delay 0. For a GC-inj PAL syringe, set Postrun syringe washes to 6 or 7 so that they will not finished by the time the GC run is finished.
For a HS-Inj, set GC runtime to 90 seconds.

When the GC oven finishes (run light on the front of the GC goes off), taskbar shows 'Aborting cycle...'
Software will continue to show that method as 'running...' until it finises its postrun, if present.

Temporary Solution:

This is related to the time series synchronization. The decision was made while developing the program  the PAL cycle should not exceeds the GC runtime.

CTC PAL: If only the back inlet is present, method stops with BAD ARGUMENT error

Problem:

When running CTC PAL and G1701EA E.02.00 with only the back inlet present on the GC, the method stops with a BAD ARGUMENT error.

Temporary Solution:

First workaround:
In order to start a single run or a sequence, install the EPC module of the back inlet to the front position by using the EPC1 connector. Also, the heater must be connected to the front inlet position or the front EPC will not work without a heater. So physically the inlet is in the back position and the EPC and heater are in the front.

Multiple manual library extractions (>2,000) could result in a lockup of Data Analysis

Problem:

Data-analysis software stops sometimes (about every 2 weeks) after multiple manual library extractions (>2,000).  

Using the automated Library search does not created this problem, only manual interaction does.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch is available as a temporary fix.
Coreda.dll --> English Version
CoreDA_chs.dll --> Chinese version, must rename to Coreda.dll
CoreDA_jpn.dll --> Japanese version, must rename to Coreda.dll

It addresses the problem related to excessive mouse actions during manual library extractions. The customer reported that after the point patch is installed the frequency of Data Analysis getting locked up is reduced to once a month, instead of every two weeks. Other reasons that can cause Data Analysis lockup remain unknown and therefore the issue is unresolved.

Fix Information:

To installl the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the existing file from Coreda.dll to Coreda-orig.dll
2. For the English version, copy the new file to the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe
    For CHS or JPN version, first rename the new file to Coreda.dll and then copy it to the C:\msdchem\MSexe .

Wrong update of qual ion ratios (SCAN trace instead of SIM trace) with "avg"

Problem:

Dual signal datafile (sim/scan). Quantitation on SIM ion. Subtration method: No subtraction 
When updating level with "Replace Qualifier Ion Relative responses", the ratios of the SCAN trace are used. When you do manual adjust integration in QEdit, the SIM trace is used. The result is that it will mark it as Qualifiers out of range.

Every 2nd data file is EMPTY - caused by ALS failure and OVERLAP ON

Problem:

- Overlap is set to ON by default in MSD Chemstation.

- Within a sequence, at the 2nd injection the MSD Chemstation is waiting
  for GC ready. If this does NOT occur after ~5.5 minutes the ALS reports:
  ALS Failure code {125}: Autoinjector back tower timeout: in sample too long.

- This error will cause the sequence to skip this injection and
   continue with the 3rd one.
    Sequence log file will report incorrect error message:
    Barcode Mismatch, sample not injected.

- As a result every 2nd data file is empty

Temporary Solution:

First workaround:
Turn OFF overlap. 

Second workaround: 
A point patch (nticrunmeth.mac) is available as a temporary fix.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the exiisting file from nticrunmeth.mac to nticrunmeth-orig.mac
2.  Copy the new file to the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe .

Editing a 7890A method during a run has consequences

Problem:

The G1701EA E.02.00 SP1 7890A driver and associated A.01.09.1 firmware permit method parameters to be changed during the running of the method.  The software is being released with several known deficiencies.
1) There is no online help
2) The system may crash if new parameters are downloaded to the GC (Apply button) before the run actually starts.
3) Not all parameters can be changed during a run.  For example, the transfer line temperature is only set at the beginning of the run.
4) The size of the GC Edit Parameters panel is larger than it was in previous revisions. Therefore, the minimum resolution of the computer's video subsystem is 1280x1024.
5) When method parameters are changed during a run, the next run will use the original method parameters. Changed parameters persist only for the signal run.  If you want to change the method, the sequence should be paused, the run should be stopped, the method should be edited and saved. Then the sequence may be restarted.
6) If a method is changed during a run, there is a message inserted into the instrument logbook and the acqmeth.txt file in the data file directory is modified to indicate that the method has not been saved.

Column to be used with RTL has alwyas be the first one in the configuration list

Problem:

Using a 7890A with 5975C with 2 columns, a polar and a non polar column both are connected to the MS detector, each column has its own locked method. When using the front inlet, everything is working fine. Front inlet pressure is set up according to the method RTL setup and back inlet pressure can be setup independently. Now the locked method is used with the back inlet, both inlet pressure are set according to the RTL curve. They are not independent. 

In order for the 2 inlets pressure to be controlled independently, the column of the inlet that you want to use with RTL has to be the first in the list.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (instctl.mac and instctl2.mac) is available as temporary fix for this defect.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the existing files from:
instctl.mac to instctl-orig.mac
instctl2.mac to instctl2-orig.mac
2. Copy the new files to the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe .

Cannot OK Sample log table with manual method loaded with CTC-PAL

Problem:

On a system configured with 7890A/CTC-PAL, the sequence table would not let you enter a vial number for a CTC method if a manual inject method was loaded. You get error message “Vial number is of out of range”. If the CTC-PAL is removed from the configuration, but the CTC-PAL files are still present in the instrument folder, this will cause an error in instrument control initialization.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (instctl.mac and instctl2.mac) is available as a temporary fix. These files will work with G1701EA E.02.00 and G1701EA E.02.00 SP1.

PAL: CTC-PAL Bad argument error with 6890/5975C AFTER installing E.02.00 SP1

Problem:

The MSD ChemStation was updated from G1701EA E.02.00 to E.02.00 SP1 and after the update the system was getting bad arguments:
     G1701EA E.02.00
     G1701EA E.02.00 SP1
     G3384AA A.01.04SR1

What happens is:
When you start single run or sequence you get error: Bad Arguments
When you start a run with the green arrow:
   You can see that in the grey Inlet location nothing is selected.
   When you have a 7890A configured the front inlet is selected.
   The variable for this is _locfrontavail
   This variable is set to 0 when 6890 is configured.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to remove G1701EA E.02.00 SP1 to allow the CTC-PAL to operate correctly for this configuration (hardware/software/method).

Problem:

From the GC Configuration > Calibrated a column from inventory. Four meters have been trimmed off, so the column length is now 26 meters. After selecting OK to download change to GC and saving the method following method resolution, the GC pressure setting does not change for the new column length. Instead, the original column length of 30 meters is shown.

Wrong calibration time stamp in Enhanced and EnviroQuant

Problem:

Customer updates the responses for the calibration levels Jan 21, 2008 15:00 hours. The calibration report and quant report show the same time stamp. Customer on Feb 2, 2008 9:00 hours edit the compound database and changes 1 compound to quadratic fit. Now calibration report show the Feb 2 date and time but the quant report shows Jan 21. Now if you run the qt command and not the pull down menu quant item all matches no problem.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to run the qt command and not the pull down menu quant item. This is because the pull down quant menu item runs quantrptopt and this command is broken. It is reading the time stamp for the qdb.mth when the method was created.

Changing ISTD weight is only supported for AROMATICS analysis.

Problem:

If the customer is using Enhanced, EnviroQuant or DrugQuant mode, changing the ISTD weight column will show NO difference in the calculated amounts. Similarly, adding it to the sample log table will result in NO change.

Temporary Solution:

Software is working properly as designed. For Aromatics mode, all the ISTD compounds are required to have their individual percentage of ISTD weight per compound entry in the quant database. For the Enhanced, EnvirQuant and DrugQuant modes, exact weight of each ISTD compound is not required and therefore there is no support for multilple internal standards.

Wanted TIC and EIC to be displayed together in the same window

Problem:

Customer wants to display the TIC & EIC together. Using stack, when the EIC is loaded, the TIC is cleared TIC from the stack. As a result only the EIC is displayed.

Temporary Solution:

Workaround is to display both TIC & EIC's in same window using 'analyze multiple data files'. But when you click autoscale Y axis, this doesn't let you zoom in on the TIC & EIC separately. 

A second workaround is to use the draw command and stack to display the two chromatograms in another window. Then zoom in on either of the chromotagrams you want. The disadvantage is that the extra window contains both chromatograms.

Fix Information:

One-line Description:

Editing running sequences of overlapped methods may result in an incorrect vial being injected

Problem:

For methods with Sample Overlap enabled, if you change or insert a vial number of the next sample in the sequence after the ALS has started to process that sample, the change in the vial number will be ignored and the original vial will be injected. In addition, the sequence log and report will incorrectly show the sample information and vial number of the inserted sample, instead of the actual vial that was injected.

The example below illustrates the problem of editing an overlapped method in a running sequence.

Starting sequence Fri Oct 16 16:41:07 2009
Instrument Name: EI.CI-GCMSD
     Sequence File: C:\msdchem\1\sequence\overlap.s
           Comment:  
            Operator:  
           Data Path: C:\MSDCHEM\1\DATA\OVERLAP\
       Method Path: C:\msdchem\1\METHODS\
 
  Line Type        Vial  DataFile  Method    Sample Name
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    1) Sample         1  vial 1    OVERLAP   Sample 1
    2) Sample         6  vial 6    OVERLAP   Sample 1
    3) Sample         2  vial 2    OVERLAP   Sample 2
    4) Sample         7  vial 7    OVERLAP   Sample 7
    5) Sample         8  vial 8    OVERLAP   Sample 8
    6) Sample         3  vial 3    OVERLAP   Sample 3
    7) Sample         4  vial 4    OVERLAP   Sample 4
    8) Sample         5  vial 5    OVERLAP   Sample 5

where line 2 (vial 6) , line 4 (vial 7), and line 5 (vial 8) were inserted to the running sequence table.

However, the actual vial numbers used/injected were:
  Vials    1, 2, 2, 3, 8, 3, 4, 5     not the 
  Vials    1, 6, 2, 7, 8, 3, 4, 5     as reported in the sequence log

Temporary Solution:

To avoid this undesirable situation, do not edit the first editable line while the sequence is running.

If you need to edit the sequence while it is running, you should edit at least two lines below the currently active line.

Cannot reset upper temperature limit

Problem:

Prior to running OFN, two columns are configured in the software with the second column having upper temperature limit of 240 degrees. This prevents the OFN method from running properly as it needs to be at higher temperature. After the second column is removed and the method is saved, the upper temperature limit remains 240. Deleting and reconfiguring instrument #1 also fail to reset the upper temperature limit.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to delete instrument #1, delete directory C:\msdchem\1\, and then reconfigure instrument #1. Next, set upper limit as usual.

Fix Information:

Use of the column temp over ride is supposed to allow the system to temporarily ignore a setpoint.   But unless I am going to permanently disable the safety feature provided by upper column limit, I must be able to properly reset it within the software    S.Hite .

Problem:

If you open a Custom Report Database (CRD) file that has bad characters in cell C3 in Excel, the CRD file can NOT be closed in Excel. The bad characters look like:
='C:\msdchem\custrpt\[ C\msdchem\custrpt\[detail.xls]Sheet1]#REF'!A$2

where the empty space after the "[" and before "C" designates a square block.  

Once this file is opened in Excel, attempts to close the file become very difficult. Excel reports an undefined reference and states it "cannot close". 

The problem occurs in both Enhanced and EnviroQuant modes of MSD ChemStation. It doesn't occurs if you look at the reports, instead of databases.

One-line Description:

Stopping a Sequence Post-Injection (but before vial is returned) causes a Pre-Run Hang on Restart.

Problem:

A three-line sequence with overlapped injections (option 1) is stopped using Stop button post injection, but before the vial is returned to the tray and the next vial is picked up. As a result, the whole sequence is aborted.

Upon restarting the sequence, the sequence is restarted at line 1, instead of resuming the next line in sequence. It then hangs in prerun and nothing happens.

You can the abort the hang, but the sequence can't run unless you shutdown and restart Instrument Control.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to stop a run after the ALS finishes. This will stop cleanly and return the vial on resuming or restarting the sequence.

Method migration issues

Problem:

When migrating methods from one instrument type to another, the method migration may not always function perfectly. For example 5975 methods that scan beyond 800 daltons will be truncation to 800 daltons when the method is migrated to a 5973 MSD. GC and ALS parameters are sometime not migrated perfectly due to differences in the parameters between the two different pieces of hardware.

Temporary Solution:

Prior to migrating any method between different instrument type, the method should be archived to durable media and a copy of ACQMETH.TXT, if present in the *.M folder should be printed. After the migration process, the method should be printed and compared to the original ACQMETH.TXT. If necessary, acquisition parameters should be manually edited. Mass Spectometer tune parameters should NOT be manually edited because each instrument should use a tune file and parameters resulting from an actual AUTOTUNE.

One-line Description:

Real-Time Plot shows correct GC data, but at incorrect time

Problem:

GC Data in the Real-Time Plot windows is show starting at the beggining of Pre-Run, rather than at the end of Pre-Run (i.e. at the actual t=0.0 time of the injection). The result is that all GC data is shown later than it should, by the length of the Pre-Run phase.

This is wrong for GC7890 and for GC6890 and GC6850 with 7693 ALS. It is shown correctly for GC6890 and GC6850 with 7683 ALS.

Incorrect GC data shown in Real-Time Plot

Problem:

At the end of a run, some GC Data in the Real-Time Plot windows is shown twice. The amount to data (in terms of time) depends upon the data rate.

This is wrong for 7890, 6890, and GC6850 GCs with 7693 ALS. It is shown correctly for 6890 and 6850 GCs with 7683 ALS.

GC data saved in a file is unaffected.

Temporary Solution:

Quant Report (EPAtemp.txt) is hidden by the chromatogram window with single sign

Problem:

In G1701EA E.02.00 Enhanced mode, when loading single signal FID data (GC only), the chromatogram fills the entire right side of the graphics window. Then go to Quantitate > Calculate, the epatemp.txt flashes and then becomes a background window.

Temporary Solution:

In order to visualize this window, you must click the "Toggle Graphics Windows between iconize and restore states" icon and then the epatemp.txt report is visual but now the graphics (chromatogram) is hidden. 

If you want to visualize and compare the chromatogram to the report, you must restore the window and manually resize the window. When the next file is loaded, the same series of event needs to occur when graphics and report are compared.

Problem:

With the calibration table has with target and at least one qualifier and the option to sum the areas (or heights) of the qualifier ions and target ion selected, you go to Quantitate > Calculate and then View > QEdit Quant Results.

Next, you manually integrate the trace for the target ion and then repeat the manual integration same target ion trace. Next, you manual integrate the trace for the qualifier 1. The new area  is added to the one shown of the target ion. You repeat the manual integrate on the same qualifier 1 and again this area is added to the previous area.

After the first manual integration of the target and qualifier 1, the area or height on the screen should be the sum of the target and qualifier 1. 

However, by manually re-integrating qualifier 1, the total area becomes:
Area of Target + old area of qualifier 1 + new area of qualifier 1, instead of:
Area of Target - old area of qualifier 1 + new area of qualifier 1

Cannot start instrument session with Headspace A.02.01 and G1701EA E.02.01

Problem:

Instrument session fails to initialize with Headspace A.02.01, 6890 or 7890 GC, and G1701EA E.02.01. This is due to the macros (ictop.mac, ictopseq.mac, and msinsctl.mac), which are part of the Headspace A.02.01 installation, are no longer compatible with G1701EA E.02.01. 

These macros were necessary in G1701EA E.02.00 and E.02.00SP1 for providing the 'live sequence edit' capability. However, these files are changed for G1701EA E.02.01 needs such that the versions included in the Headspace A.2.01 installation are no longer compatible with G1701EA E.02.01. Therefore, installation of Headspace A.02.01 will result in G1701EA E.02.01 failing to start an instrument session.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (ictop.mac, ictopseq.mac, and msinsctl.mac) is available as a temporary fix.

Important: G1701EA E.02.01 and Headspace A.02.01 must be installed BEFORE installing the point patch.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the existing files from:
ictop.mac to ictop-orig.mac
ictopseq.mac to ictopseq-orig.mac
msinsctl.mac to msinsctl-orig.mac

Rear inlet injection causes incorrect logbook entries that barcode does not match

Problem:

Injecting from the rear inlet causes incorrect logbook entries where the expected barcode is compared to an empty string.

For "If barcode mismatch, inject anyway" option, the logbook always says "barcode does not match" even if the barcode matches.

For "If barcode mismatch, don't inject" option, the logbook always says "barcode does not match" even if the barcode matches. No injection is made, even if the barcode matches.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to not use the "If barcode mismatch, don't inject" option with a 7890/5975 system if the rear injector is used. 

In the data file, the "expected barcode" field will be empty, but the "actual barcode" field will contain the barcode read.

SmartCard 3 FW fails to update from 3.01.58 to 5.02.07 directly in G1701EA E.02.01

Problem:

In MSD Productivity ChemStation G1701EA E.02.01, SmartCard 3 firmware version 3.01.58 or earlier fails to update to 5.02.07 directly. This failure may be due to the msupdate.exe in MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.01 being unable to correctly communicate with or identify the SmartCard 3 running version 3.01.58 or earlier.

Temporary Solution:

The temporary workaround is to complete the firmware update in two steps. The first step is to use the attached update utility (E_02_00 Firmware Update.zip) to update the firmware from version 3.01.58 to 5.02.04. The second step is to update the firmware from version 5.02.04 to 5.02.07 using the update utility in MSD Productivity ChemStaion E.02.01.

Fix Information:

Steps to update firmware:

1A. On a system running MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.01, unzip the attached "E_02_00 Firmware Update.zip" to a USB drive or local drive. There will be 14 files, including msupdate.exe (date stamp 2/27/2008), under the extracted directory E_02_00 Firmware Update\firmware\5973N.

1B. Double-click on msupdate.exe (date stamp 2/27/2008) to run the firmware update utility. When prompted, enter the IP address of the MSD instrument. Once the update is success, the MS firmware will be updated to version 5.02.04.
  
2A. Double-click on "Agilent MSD Configuration" icon on the desktop and then click on Help > Check Networking and Update MS Firmware. This will run the update utility in MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.01 to update the firmware to version 5.02.07. .

5975T -- LTM heating problems with 5975T, temperature stability issues

Problem:

The LTM column fails to reach readiness - delay to readiness.  
For the temperature accuracy, it comes from the circuit control logic of the LTM technologies; during the testing it was noticed that it would not come ready.

Delay to readiness means actual LTM column temperature does not settle on the setpoint temperature, it goes  0.4 deg above the set point and sits there.

Temporary Solution:

A temporary bypass to overcome "delay to readiness" is to set the equilibration time field to "0"; this will enable the run to be started.

Fix Information:

With new FW A.03.02.012, this issue has been fixed. .

Elitebook 8540W MUST be re-configured to support 5975T.

Problem:

1. On Elitebook 8540W, the instrument is online properly. When you close the
laptop cover (lid), MS becomes offline.
2. Some icons exceed the screen due to display resolution and font settings which makes it difficult to access these icons on the screen.

To work properly with 5975T, the power option, screen resolution
and fonts of Elitebook 8540W laptop MUST be re-configured for G1701EA E.02.02 SW.

Temporary Solution:

1. Change power plan to be "Balanced": Control Panel > System and Security > Power Options then click "Change plan settings". All should be "Never". Apply before closing the window.
2. Change the windows update options: Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Update > Change settings. Please select "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them" and apply the setting before closing the window.
3. Turn the screen saver OFF: Right click on a empty space on the desktop and click on "Personalize". Click on the "Screen Saver" link at the bottom of the window. Under Screen saver, click on the drop down menu and select "Open" and apply the setting before closing the window.
4. Change the display resolution to 1920X1080: Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Display > Screen Resolution. Select "1920X1080 (Recommended)" and apply the setting before closing the window.

Important notes on Headspace methods and sequences

Problem:

1. Do not forget to periodically review Edit Headspace Configuration and verify that the settings on the Configuration tab are correct.
2. The GC Cycle time in Edit Headspace Parameters is a critical parameter to ensure the maximum productivity of instrument is realized. See the online help in Edit Headspace Parameters for more information. This parameter should be reviewed frequently and updated whenever that actual cycle time changes.
3. The 7697 Sequence Events in the Edit Headspace Parameter should be reviewed and carefully set.  In particular, the sequence action for System Not Ready should ALWAYS BE SET TO “ABORT”. If the sequence action for System Not Ready is set to “Skip” or “Continue”, there is a possibility that a sample will be placed in an incorrect data file. “ABORT” is the only supported value for System Not Ready.
4. During a sequence containing Headspace method, it will not be possible to edit the sequence while the first Headspace method is being run because the sequencing software is unaware of the number of vials that may be processed by the Headspace hardware during the first Headspace sample.
5. Similarly, Headspace samples should not be added to a sequence while the last headspace sample is being run because the Headspace hardware will complete the current headspace sequence before the sequencing software can transmit the additional sample lines to the instrument.
6. Pausing a sequence will leave vials in the headspace oven. The headspace keyboard may be used to return the vials to the tray.
7. Caution should also be used when editing a sequence with headspace methods. If you need to edit or add a sample that is close to the currently running sample it is best to PAUSE the sequence, edit the line, and then restart the sequence to ensure that the change is properly captured and communicated to the sampler.

Incorrect injection volume shown in method report if PTV solvent vent is used

Problem:

6850 with a PTV inlet

The method specifies PTV solvent vent mode with 3 injections, ten seconds apart.  The method volume is 5 µL.  Specify the method to use method volume for three injections.  Each injection is 5 µL.  However the report shows the injection volume as 1 µL.  This is incorrect.  The report should show the injection volume as either 5 µL or 5 µL x 3, or 15 µL.

Keyword: 68xx Driver

One-line Description:

"Method modified after loading" occurs when running a sequence (6890 RC.NET)

Problem:

The "Method modified after loading" flag occurs after lauching the sequence.

Started the sequence from the ChemStation software.  The method modification status indicates that the method has changed when it was not changed and the report will indicate 'modified after loading'.

The GC had a calibrated capillary column that was changed to a packed column.  When using this method that now has a packed column, the GC reports an error in the length parameter, and that is causing the method download not to reset the 'modified after loading' flag.

Temporary Solution:

There is a workaround: bring Method into MethodEdit UI, and "reconfigure" column (Packed to Packed would be OK) to get new structure.

One-line Description:

Sequence continues while GC temperature is not ready

Problem:

When running a sequence where consecutive runs use the same method using the ALS on a data system containing 6890 driver version 6.10.027 or earlier, the data system may proceed to start a new run before the GC has equilibrated after the conclusion of the previous run.  This is more likely if the method contains a post run period of sufficient length that the GC equilibrates to the post-run conditions and the data system has completed data analysis well before the end of the post-run period.

This could result in a (retention time) RT shift.

One-line Description:

Park during sequence with Overlap causes unresponsiveness

Problem:

Running ChemStation B.04.02.96. Start a sequence with overlapped injection set to immediately after injection. While the sample is being delivered to the turret, the Park button is pressed on the 7693A Tray. After delivering the vial, the tray is put in the Park position and the Injector completes the injection. At this point the ChemStation is unresponsive. (For example, when the ChemStation is in this state, any report printed to the screen can not be closed.)  

The ChemStation responds after the Park button is pushed and vial is returned.

Temporary Solution:

The ChemStation responds after the Park button is pushed and vial is returned.

Switched and standard mode for septum purge not available on MMI

Problem:

For the split/splitless inlet, it is possible to run the septum purge in either standard mode or "switched" mode. In the switched mode, the septum purge is turned off during the injection cycle so that the only flow out of the inlet is through the column. The MMI would benefit from having this mode as well, particularly for splitless and solvent vent modes. In both modes on the MMI, the septum purge does not remain off until the inlet switches back to the purge state.

Negative Split Splitless inlet Pressure values during Post Run Backflush

Problem:

When using a 7890A GC with Split Splitless inlet to perform backflush the Inlet Setpoint and Actual Pressure assume negative values on the GC and Chemstation display during backflush. This occurs with a splitter (>2 columns) or with a purged union (Primary column plus restrictor). The columns must be running in "Flow" mode. 

A similar symptom is the inlet pressure gets set to "0.00" PSI during backflush rather than the wizard recommended value of "1.0" PSI.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to set the columns to "pressure" mode then back to flow and re-save the method.

7890B GC Method Compatibility

Problem:

The7890B GC driver included in the new data systems (A.01.05 OpenLAB CDS and B.07.00 MassHunter) supports up to 12 valves.  The GC driver in previous data systems only reported 8 valves.  Because of this difference, you cannot develop a method on a new data system and run it on an old data sytem.  You can take a method loaded on an old data system and run it on the new data system.

If you try to load a new data system method on an old data system, the behavior that you will see is that after starting a run, the software and the GC just sit there waiting for prerun to start, but nothing happens.

7890 GC never gets to Pre Run status if running manual injection or external device method in G1701EA E.02.02 SP1

Problem:

There is a defect in 7890 GC driver version 4.02.043 which is included in MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.02 SP1. If you run a manual injection or external device method the 7890 GC would not go into "Pre Run" status.

In MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.02 SP1 the "GC Acquisition" window shows “Waiting for remote start... To manually override, click Start Run”. But if you click “Start Run” while the GC is in the “Waiting for Prep Run” status then the inlet will not be setup correctly because gas saver mode is still active.

Temporary Solution:

The defect has been fixed in 7890 GC driver build 4.02.044 and is available as point patch “AgGC7890Drv.dll” (date stamp 7/24/2012) for G1701EA E.02.02 SP1.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:
1. In the directory C:\msdchem\msexe, rename the existing file from AgGC7890Drv.dll file to AgGC7890Drv-orig.dll
2. Copy the new file to the directory C:\msdchem\msexe

In the process of creating new custom reports database, when you update database with previously acquired files, you get error message "Quant Database is either empty or has not been saved. Operation Halted." This error occurs if there are less than four compounds in the quant method.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (xlmacs.mac) is available as a temporary fix.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:
1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the existing files from xlmacs.mac to xlmacs-orig.mac
2. Copy the new file to the directory C:\msdchem\Msexe .

One-line Description:

Overriding method injection volume with 7693A ALS may result in wrong volume injected

Problem:

In the Start Run dialog, under "Select Injection Volume > Override using", when you override method injection volume, the volume injected by 7693A ALS may be wrong.

The following table shows override volumes vs. injected volumes by 7693A ALS with 10 uL syringe.

Override Vol     Injected Vol     
0.8 uL              0.2 uL  
1.0 uL              1.0 uL    
1.6 uL              1.0 uL      
2.0 uL              2.0 uL       
2.3 uL              2.0 uL       
3.0 uL              3.0 uL 

The software allows override volumes in increments of 1/10th the syringe size. For a 10 uL syringe, if you enter an override volume that is NOT in 1/10th syringe size increments (i.e. 1 uL), then the injected volume will be wrong. The wrong injected volume is deternimed as follows:

If override volume < 1/10th syringe size (i.e. < 1.0 uL for 10uL syringe), then injected volume defaults to 1/50th syringe size (i.e. 0.2 uL for a 10 uL syringe).

If override volume > 1/10th syringe size (i.e. > 1.0 uL for 10uL syringe) but NOT in 1/10th increment of the syringe, then injected volume is scaled down to the next lower increment allowed. For example, 1.6 uL override volume is default to 1.0 uL injected volume, as shown in table above.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (nticrunmeth.mac) is available as a temporary fix.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:
1. In the directory C:\msdchem\msexe, rename the existing file from nticrunmeth.mac to nticrunmeth-old.mac

It incorrectly runs the PT assigned to the method, instead of PT assigned in the SLT. In the example below, Test1.M is enabled with Move1.PT, Test2.M is enabled with Move2.PT, and Test3.M  is not enabled with sample prep file.

Run #	Method	PT Assigned in SLT	PT Executed
1	test1.M	move1.PT		move1.PT
2	test1.M	move1.PT		move1.PT
3	test1.M	move1.PT		move1.PT
4	test1.M	move2.PT		move1.PT
5	test1.M	move2.PT		move1.PT
6	test1.M	move2.PT		move1.PT
7	test2.M	move2.PT		move1.PT
8	test2.M	move2.PT		move2.PT
9	test2.M	move2.PT		move2.PT
10	test2.M	move1.PT		move1.PT

Cannot run method with dual valve and rear inlet injection

Problem:

With the inlet/injection parameters set for two gas sampling valves and rear inlet injection, when you run the method, Instrument Control remains in "Prerun" status while the GC status is "Ready". If you go to the "Inlet and Injection Parameters" window, the inlet is somehow set to front. However, the "Start Run" window has it correctly set to rear inlet. This discrepancy is causing the run to stall in "Prerun".

Temporary Solution:

Only one gas sampling valve is supported in revision E.02.02. It will be necessary to reconfigure the GC to switch back and forth between two gas sampling valves. Dual injection will not work.

Problem:

If you perform a "run method" with "Enable barcode mixer" box unchecked in the method, the vial is moved to barcode mixer position and is spun for 4-5 seconds as though it is reading the barcode before moving to the turret.

Temporary Solution:

To disable the barcode reader when running a method, type "off" in the "Exppected Barcode" field in the Start Run window.  Alternatively, you can run sequence with one line in the Sample Log Table and "Disable Barcode for This Sequence" selected in the Start Sequence window.

Instrument logbook info is misleading when recording barcode mismatch

Problem:

A 3-line sequence is run with expected barcodes, autonaming, and "On Mismatch, Don't Inject". The barcode for line 2 is incorrect. The sequence acquires data for line 1, aborts line 2, and acquires line 3. But the instrument logbook records barcode mismatch directly underneath "acquired 00101001.D" for line 1 and above "acquired 00301003.D" for line 3. Having barcode mismatch info shown directly underneath "acquired 00101001.D" is misleading and user may mis-interpret line 1 as the one with barcode mismatch, instead of line 2.

One-line Description:

CTC-PAL sequence injects from tray 1 instead of tray 2

Problem:

With sample overlap turned on, when you run a sequence using Headspace 3 trays, the instrument will incorrectly pick up vial from tray 1 even though a different tray (tray 2 or tray 3) is specified in the sequence. For example, a sequence running tray 1 -> tray 2 -> tray 3 -> tray 1 will actually inject vial from tray 1 -> tray 1 -> tray 3 -> tray 1.

The CTC status is showing what vial is being injected but the tray number does not match the vial specifed in the Sample Log Table. For example, CTC status is PREPARING Transporting Vial From Tray1:32 to Agitator:1 while the Sample Log Table is showing Tray 2 Vial 1.

Sequence fails to run due to "Instrument Control - Make Directory Failed" error

Problem:

If a line in the Sample Log Table (SLT) contains a vertical separator charater (|) in the "Data File" column, the sequence will fail to run for that line and all subsequent lines in the SLT. 

On Windows XP PC, the error occurs when sequence file (.s) has the vertical separator character in the SLT. 

On Windows 7 PC, the same sequence file (.s) that has vertical separator is not visible in the SLT and as a result the sequence completes successfully without any error.

Temporary Solution:

The workaround is to not enter any vertical separator in the "Data File" column in the SLT.

G1710DA does not have the report  Template/Database function

Problem:

Installing the Data Analysis only G1710DA D.02.00 completely ignores the Custom Reports files.  Not only does the msdchem\custrpt folder not get created and populated, but the xlmacs.mac and xlmac2.mac files are not installed in the msdchem\msexe folder.

Temporary Solution:

Obtain the xlmacs files and copy them into msexe, along with these files from the custrpt folder of a G1701 installation:

custrpt2.mdb
custrpt5.mdb
custrpt.exe
detail.def
graphics.ini
pre_post.def
rptall.crt

after doing this, Custom Reports application starts up correctly.

Can not input 0.00x at Sample Concentration in Setup Quant

Problem:

Input a Compound Concentration of 0.001 when they create the first calibration level and the dialog box rounds the value down to 0.00. If you try 0.005 it rounds it up to 0.01 - the data filed only accepts a two decimal places number and actively rounds the number up and down when a third decimal place number is attempted to be entered.

Temporary Solution:

A value of 0.0001 can be placed in the Edit Compounds compound panel itself ? so, the quant database is capable of storing and using numbers like this.  
It appears as the Update Calibration table panel that creates the levels has a limitation.  Input a Compound Concentration of 0.001 and the dialog box rounds the value down to 0.00. If you try 0.005 it rounds it up to 0.01 - the data filed only accepts a two decimal places number and actively rounds the number up and down when a third decimal place number is attempted to be entered.

Since you CAN put whatever value in the CONCENTRATION field of the quant database once the level is created, you can either manually update them one at a time OR update them all using ?global update? by doing this:

Calibrate/update/global update/set other (via command), enter this command:

Cconc[n]= where n=level NUMBER in the calibration table.

NOTE: this will update ALL compound concentrations for that level.  IF you have internal standards, you will need to go back and manually set them to the correct value.

Keyword: Data Analysis Enhanced

One-line Description:

Wrong area counts resulted from manual integration of AMDIS peak in QEdit

Problem:

In QEdit, if you perform manual integration of imported AMDIS results and attempt to extend the baseline where there is no response, the area count will be wrong. You will see illogical increasing response values with decreased baseline width. 

When performing manual integration, there is no need to include the baseline that has zero abundance. The RTEINT algorithm will reports the correct response if you provide the valid peak start and stop points for manual integration.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (myfnnread.mac and casmatch.mac) is available as a temporary fix. Only the peak itself, not the entire range, will be integrated.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\msexe, rename the existing file from Myfnnread.mac to Myfnnread-orig.mac

Quant.csv file accumulates MS quant results from *.RES in the datafile

Problem:

If a data file contains more than one results file, generating a Quant.csv file (as part of the method or from the menu) will result in multiple SIGNAL 1 sections, each containing a compound results list. 

Users who parse QUANT.CSV for input to  a LIMS system will be affected.

Temporary Solution:

Workaround for LIMS customers is to rename or delete the unwanted .RES files, then regenerate the quant.csv.

NOTE:  This is and has been the designed behavior.  It was put in place for customers who split their analytical compound list between 2 or more methods, where ALL the quant results are needed in the csv file.  Remember, this file is used by the enviro forms package too.  If the user doesn't want all quant results, they need to either manage their methods more efficiently OR edit the msmacros\csv.mac to change the pointer for more quant results:

   b = 1  !<---change this to a 1 and only the primary quant results will be used
   while  b = 0

KPR#:1208  Product:G1701 MSD Productivity Software  G1701\10 EA  E.02.01

Keyword: GCMS Configuration

One-line Description:

Cannot control MSD transfer line temp with G1701EA E.02.01 and "6850 with 7693 ALS" configuration

Problem:

When the system with G1701EA E.02.01 is configured as "6850 with 7693 ALS", the MSD transfer line temperature cannot be modified if the MSD heater cable is connected to the detector zone on 6850 GC.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch for the 6850 driver (setup.exe, ~ 11 MB) is available as a temporary fix.

Fix Information:

1. Make sure the correct 6850 GC and 7693 ALS firmware are installed. For 6850N GC, use firmware A.06.02 or higher. For 6850A GC, use firmware A.03.07 or higher. For appropriate 7693 ALS firmware version, see \CurrentFirmwareRevisions-xx.htm (where xx is the localized language) under \Support\G1701 MSD Productivity ChemStation directory on the G1701EA E.02.01 installation CD (P/N G1701-60155). The GC firmware are included under the \Support\GC Firmware directory on the G1701EA E.02.01 installation. The firmware can be updated using Instrument Utilities.
2. Close all sesssions of MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.01, if needed.
3. Run the point patch setup.exe.

If for any reason you need to uninstall the point patch, you must uninstall Agilent G1701 MSD Productivity ChemStation (i.e. G1701EA E.02.01) from the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs. Once uninstalled, you can then re-install G1701EA E.02.01. .

Issues with 6890 methods and 6850 Instruments

Problem:

Methods developed in Revisions of G1701DA prior to D.02.00 do not possess the 68501.mth file used by the 6850 driver.  When these older 6890 methods are loaded on the 6850 instrument, the 6890 method is used and the driver will log "illegal commands" into the Logbook.  This behavior is expected and harmless.

Temporary Solution:

This behavior is expected and harmless.

eMethods: export/import eMethods between 6890 & 7890 GC

Problem:

eMethods will only work for 6890-6850 GC based methods.   The present eMethods does not allow users to export/import eMethods from 6890 GC to 7890 or from 7890 GC to 6890 GC.

Temporary Solution:

eMethods were designed to transfer information from like instrumentation designs.
   6890/6850-MSD to a 6890/6850-MSD
   7890-MSD to a 7890-MSD

There are unique parameters for different types of GCs contained with the same Method.  So migrating the information across the ChemStation will not be able to determine what type of GC was being used during the eMethod migration.

If a user has a 6890-MSD and would like to migrate to a 7890-MSD system, here is an outline how to do it.
  1 - Export Method to eMethod on 6890-MSD ChemStation
  2 - Create an offline 6890-MSD on the 7890-MSD ChemStation
  3 - Import eMethod via the offline 6890-MSD instrument on the 7890-MSD ChemStation
  4 - From the 7890-MSD instrument on the 7890-MSD ChemStation read in the 6890-MSD method which was create.

- "This computer is using most of its memory. Shut down other applications to run the ChemStation reliably."
- "This computer is running out of memory. Continue?"
- "The ChemStation is using too much memory. Do you want to restart it now?" appears in Instrument Control.
- "This computer is running out of memory."
- "This computer is now swap bound."

Temporary Solution:

If you encounter low memory issues, you need to increase the PC memory.

Vent error with MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.02 and MSD FW 5.02.09

Problem:

When venting 5975 CI MSD using MSD Productivity ChemStation E.02.02 and FW 5.02.09, the following error message appeared.

"Vent error: MS status fault 0 (see Help -> Troubleshooting)"

If you click OK on the error message, another message appears saying "Vent Cycle complete. Turn off the mass sped Main Power Switch." This is incorrectly indicating that the vent cycle is complete even though the system is not ready to vent.

Temporary Solution:

A point patch (MS_FW_05_10.exe) is available as a temporary fix. 

To implement the fix, you must 1) extract MS_FW_05_10.exe file, and 2) update MSD firmware to revision 5.02.10.
NOTE: The extraction of MS_FW_05_10.exe file will copy two folders (5973N and 5973N-orig) to C:\msdchem\msexe\firmware and two files (checkfrm.mac and checkfrm-orig.mac) to C:\msdchem\msexe. Checkfrm.mac eliminates error message that there is a mismatch in expected FW revision vs. installed FW revision.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1a) Double-click MS_FW_5_02_10.exe to extract files for firmware revision 5.02.10 and checkfrm.mac.
1b) In WinZip Self-Extractor window, enter "C:\" in the "Unzip to folder" field and click Unzip.
1c) Verify files have been extracted to the correct directories. 
2a) Run MS firmware update by opening "Agilent MSD Configuration" desktop icon and select "Help > Check Networking and Update MS Firmware".
2b) Select the instrument number to update the firmware.
2c) Type "Yes" to proceed with FW update when prompted.
2d) Power cycle instrument to complete update process when prompted. .

Keyword: Instrument Control

One-line Description:

MSD with SC3.2 intermittenly does not acquire data

Problem:

About every 49 days, the MSD system with SmartCard 3.2 would not acquire data when starting a run method or sequence. The method or sequence runs and completes all the injections, but the MSD never starts at all. The Solvent Delay message does not appear and the filament does not turn on, but data files are present. There are reports that this problem is seen more frequently than every 49 days.

Temporary Solution:

There are two temporary workarounds available. 

Workaround #1 is to execute the following command in the command line of Instrument Control:
        scinit 1
This command would reset the SmartCard so data can be acquired. However, the problem would appear again about every 49 days.

Workaround #2 is to install a point patch (SC3.2 Firmware Update.exe) as a temporary fix. The fix will be included in G1701EA E.02.02 SP1.

Fix Information:

Run "SC 3.2 Firmware Update.exe" program on PC with G1071EA E.02.02 installed. This adds 5.02.12 firmware 5973N directory and copies the original firmware to a \5973N.original directory. It also updates compatible checkfrm.mac and saves the original file to checkfrm.mac.original. After installing the point patch, you must complete the firmware update by opening "Agilent MSD Configuration" icon and select Help > Check Networking and Update MS Firmware. Follow prompts provided. A successful update will display "Current MSSC version: 5.02.12". .

One-line Description:

Diffusion pump temp status doesn't change to "HOT" unless MSD Chemstation is restarted

Problem:

In G1701EA E.02.02, the "Diffusion pump temp", shown in the Vacuum Status window, will not update if the MSD Productivity ChemStation software is opened during pumpdown cycle (i.e. before pumpdown is completed). It will incorrectly display "Cold", which is the status at the time the MSD ChemStation is opened. The status will not be updated until after one of the following options is performed.
 Restart the MSD Productivity ChemStation software
 Type command "MSON", followed by "MSOFF" in the MSD Productivity ChemStation software

Temporary Solution:

To prevent the issue from occuring, it is recommended that during the pumpdown cycle, the MSD Productivity ChemStation software must be closed. If needed, the instrument status can be accessed from the MSD instrument panel instead of the Vacuum Status window. After the pumpdown cycle is completed, the user can open the MSD Productivity ChemStation software and there won't be any issue with incorrect "Diffusion pump temp" status in the Vacuum Status window. It should show "Ready To Run" if all instrument conditions have met their target. 

If the MSD Productivity ChemStation software is opened before pumpdown cycle is completed, there are two options to clear the error messages and get the correct diffusion pump temp to show in the Vacuum Status window.
 Restart the MSD Productivity ChemStation software
 Type command "MSON", followed by "MSOFF" in the MSD Productivity ChemStation software

Library Search Report ignores Chemstation integration parameters file

Problem:

Using the ChemStation integration parameters file (*.e) to generate the Library Search Report, the RTs from the report does not match the RTs from the Quant Report. It looks like the Library Search Report ignores the specified Chemstation integrations events file and automatically uses the RTE events .p file.

Problem:

EnviroForms 3.02, 3.01, and 3.0 do not hancle FOmr 3 correctly when ther are a sufficient number of analytes to cause multiple pages to be printed. In this case, the cusotmer had 60 analytes marked as Matrix spike analytes. The remaining analytes were either S = SUrrogate or I - Internal Standard. Producing Form 3A gave 5 pages. ALl information reported in the body of the form was correct.. MS and MSD Recoveries that were outside of the limits were reported correctly. Relative Percent Deviations were reported correctly. Any Recover or RPD outside the QA/QClimits were flagged. The problem is in the footer of the form which displays: RPD 0 out of 32 outside Limits Spike Recovery.. 16 of 64 outside limits. The numbers reported on each page differed from page to page. Recov RPD Page 1 16 of 64 0 of 32 Page 2 30 of 57 0 of 29 Page 3 12 of 0 0 of 0 Page 4 20 of 0 0 of 0 The bottom of the pageshould report the total out for the entire report. In this case it would have been RPD 11 of 60 outside of limits Spike recovery 51 of 120 ouside Limits. Making Form 3 with the macros availible in Data Analysis gave a correct report.

Problem:

If the system doesn't have any aux lines being detected or installed on the GC when the user enters the GC monitor section (injectors, valves, oven, aux, options), the aux icon will be greyed out.  Clicking on the aux, then run options, and then back to the aux; the injectors icon will disappear and all of the icons will shift to the left leaving the far right (what use to be the run options location) white.  Exit from the Run time parameters for the GC screen and going back into it again will refresh all of the icons back to their normal location and funtion.  (This should not occur with an MSD because it will be using AUX#2 for the heater interface; this unit that was being used had an external power source for the gc interface.

Long filename exceptions in G1701DA

Problem:

There are several exceptions to the long filename specification in the GC/MS software.  The ususal specification is the support up to 100 characters for paths (method and data path) and up to 50 characters for names.  

The exceptions are:

Datapath and Methodpath keyword in the SampleLogTable is limited to 45 character.  In Drug mode, Batchdir and Append keywords are limited to 45 characters

Environmental Forms requires the use of short (8.3) file names.  The template specified by the U.S. E.P.A will not accomodate a longer filename.

The Batch summary report will truncate long file names.  In Drug mode, the use of the default file naming is highly recommended.

The Detailed text only Quantitative report will print the integration events file, but the file name may be cut off on a printed report.

Confusion about Pause versus Abort in Sequence

Problem:

From Top level the user has the ability to edit the sample log table, open another DA screen, access help and "pause".

If the user wants to pause  click on the pause button and a dialogue box asks ABORT. 
If OK is clicked the current run stops and the sequence is aborted. 
If Cancel is clicked the sequence chugs along happily until the end.

This "feature" may/could cause customers to lose data depending upon which button has been clicked.

Connecting a 2nd Chemstation of a GC/MS can cause problems.

Problem:

If a 2nd Chemstation attempts to connect to a GC/MS system, the software should display an informative message, "MS is in use by another Session" and terminate gracefully.  In some instances the 1st Chemstation can a run method error.

Temporary Solution:

Laboratories that have several Chemstations configured to the same instrument must be very careful to ensure that only one Chemstation is running at a time.  If lockups, lockouts, or errors occur, it is generally best to exit the Chemstation, log out of your current Windows session, log back into your Windows session, power cycle the GC/MS and restart one Chemstation session.

LABELed Chromatograms draw vertically and interactive ANNOTATIONS draw horizonta

Problem:

Generate a report to the screen of the TIC with labeled peaks (those found in their quant database). These peak labels are vertically positioned (as desired). 

Following this report generation, go to annotate ?un-quantitated? (and thus unlabeled) peaks, wishing to simply add this TIC ?picture? to the custom report the docs sign off on. 

When adding annotation for these secondary uncalibrated peaks, it causes the entire ?peak labeling? to flip from vertical to horizontal for EVERYTHING.

One-line Description:

Use of EasyEIC with overlayed chromatograms is limited

Problem:

More details (this list is not complete):
IF you overlay chromatograms, and THEN enable the EasyEIC mouse actions, the overlay process may not have created all the necessary items EasyEIC is expecting and an error will occur when you try to use EasyEIC options.  Enabling EasyEIC prior to overlay is a partial workaround, but the process is still problemmatic when SimScan data is used.

In order to use the EasyEIC overlay with SimScan data, the 'select signals' needs to be used such that the datafiles are 'single signal'.

With single signal data overlayed, some of the EasyEIC options are not fully functional - removing EIC's will fail.

Using the 'redraw' options (either button or menu) may result in a mismatch between the apparent datafile seen in the title bar and the datafile actually drawn.  If SimScan data is involved, there may also be a mismatch between the scan signal and the sim signal that is displayed.

RTGA:  tune window displays then disappears

Problem:

RTGA Revision 3.01
During Method - Edit, configured a 5973/75 instrument.  Chose to edit that instrument.  With two instruments configured on one system so both of them displayed under the ChemStation Instrument section.

Selected one of the instruments and choose to open the tune window.  Received an error that the mass spec was already being used.  Selected the other instrument instead and choose open tune window.  The tune window opened and as soon as it was OKd the MS Zones panel, the tune window went away.  

Selecting Open tune window once again worked OK.

All initial checkouts at customer sites will be done with the simplest configuration, namely GC-Inj cycle.  

The PAL must be configured and setup prior to loading software and configuring the G1701DA with the PAL.   When this is done then the correct configuration will be read from the PAL to the MSD ChemStation.

Problem:

Open PAL Edit Method after online initialization and the 10ul GC-Inj syringe is correctly detected and displayed at the top. GC-Inj cycle is selected with all default settings. Save method (attached).  Run Method to Tray2, vial 1.  
PAL begins to run, but goes invalidly to the agitator, opens its top door, then stops, beeps and errors.  The taskbar immediately reads 'PAL Cycle starting...' with the Run indicator, but it must be aborted.  

(This system has more than 4 trays configured.)

Temporary Solution:

The G1701DA MSD ChemStation software will only read the first three trays configured on the PAL, if the user has configured more than three trays then any application using those trays will not function.

Problem:

Run a sequence to a data directory, e.g. C:\msdchem\x\DATA\7-17-2006\ and then let the data files name themselves. 

At completion, looking in Explorer and sequence log, the first datafile is named 0101001.D, followed by0201002.D, 0301003.D, etc. Load the method and sequence in DA Reprocess.  Edit sequence so that only the fourth and fifth samples are going to be reprocessed (Cut lines 1,2,3, 6-101).T  his should be looking to reprocess 0401004.D and 0501005.D.OK and Run sequence.

This fails with 'Error loading or no data' in Reprocess.log.

When reprocessing data files, using the standard chemstation autonaming procedures will cause problems if the sequence is altered - either lines removed or added.

There are no other selections available in the drop-down boxes of this column.  Consequence is that it proceeds to reprocess, but for each Tray1 sample asks the unlikely question:'Library C:\msdchem\msexe\demo.l not found. Please select an existing library'

This error message is implying that the tray name has been changed or the method being used is using the wrong tray name.

PAL: eMethod of the Sample pathway does not show any injector

Problem:

Create a method using PAL ALS as the injection source (GC-Inj syringe/cycle). Save as a new method.  Export emethod.  The Sample pathway does not show any injector.

Temporary Solution:

One should print out the method prior to using the emethod.   The text file acqmeth.txt can then be used in the comments section of the eMethod to place in the parameters which were used and also which should be placed is what are the conditions for the PAL.

eMethod: diff max oven temps triggering method res when loading imp emethod.

Problem:

One would expect method resolution to occur if the oven max temp of the current loaded method was out of the range of the source method, but in this case it was just temperature differences that were within the range of the instrument just after loading the method on. One would expect it to just accept those new setpoints.

Temporary Solution:

When looking at this:  you can't select JUST the oven max source/target but you can select the WHOLE set of oven stuff.  2 methods that differed ONLY by oven max and experimented with exporting/importing them.  If imported and selected target instead of source it did use the target oven max then and then you didn't get method resolution.

Problem:

On Export, enter some instructions and then selected Back. It went to the method review screen. When  selecting  Next again, the instructions were erased.

Temporary Solution:

As a matter of (current) policy, the eMethod wizard destroys user-input when the user goes back from a screen to a previous one.  The reason is that selections in previous screens are presumed to change the context of the user's input in future screens.

It is recommend to save information to a file first and then cut and paste the information into the wizard.

One-line Description:

MSD does not report back RFPA fault correctly and terminates method/sequence

Problem:

1 - In the Manual Tune the RFPA was set to trip the 800 amu range.
2 - Profile and Scan does not report back faults when monitoring 800, 800, 800 or 800 to 1050.
3 - Started a sequence to see what will happen and the system locked up!!!!  The ChemStation and the MSD were both locked.   Abort from the ChemStation was okay, but the MSD has to be power cycled to recover.   
4 - This was also verified using Method only 
5 - The data file directories only shows the temp data files
6 - The method crashed around 0.5 minutes with a 0.2 delay at the beginning

The sequence should have stopped cleanly with the appropriate error message.   
The error message from the sequence was not the same error as the method.   sequence stated it "Expected Service Request was not received" .  Method still states that run was started and it kept on waiting.  The MS log book states it was aborted by user.

Temporary Solution:

The error message which was being generate is mimicing a defect side board.   The solution would have been either recalibrate the side board or have the board replaced.

Fix Information:

This has been corrected with release of G1701EA E.01.00. .

The 7890A GC files were not being properly registered and systems which have had multiple install and uninstalls due to not cleaning up the files correctly.
On a new PC, all files get registered correctly
The issue is related to the register of the .NET components.

Problem:

The 7890 method can specify FLOW or PRESSURE as the flow control mode.  If FLOW is used, the Retention Time Locking feature is inoperative.  When set for constant PRESSURE, it works as desired.

The RECOMMENDED mode of operation is and always has been CONSTANT PRESSURE while using RTL.

Problem:

The ability to Override Waiting for Ready on the 7890A GC is not possible, but it is available for the 6890 GC.

The ALS subsystem in the 7890 does not support overriding readiness to do the injection at this time.  It will wait indefinitely in the "ready to inject" postion (syringes in the vials) until the instrument goes ready, and then proceed.

Temporary Solution:

In the 7890, one can cause the GC to ignore readiness of everything except the oven through configuration (or from the Method's "Determines Readiness" flags).   The oven still has to come ready for the injection to proceed, however.

6890 to a 7890A is different with respect to ?runs? and sequences of ?runs?-Stop

Problem:

The behavior of a 6890 to a 7890A is different with respect to ?runs? and sequences of ?runs?.

For a 6890 GC 
1) If a system is in a ?run? (i.e., post injection) and the user hits the ChemStation STOP sign or the GC?s STOP button, the ?run? stops, the data is processed, and the sequence continues without any further interaction from the customer.
2)  If a system is in ?prerun? (i.e., pre injection) and the user hits the ChemStation STOP sign or the GC?s STOP button, the system aborts the run, no data processing can occur and the sequence is paused.
3)  If a system encounters a critical ?prerun? error (missing vial), the run is aborted and the sequence is paused.
4) The ChemStation provides a PAUSE button to permit the user to pause a sequence.

Or in other words,
   STOP prior to injection means ABORT the run and the sequence
   STOP post injection means Stop-the-run and Continue-the-sequence
   Fatal hardware errors (front inlet shutdown, no emission current) to prevent the hardware from performing a run means ABORT.


For a 7890A GC 
1) If a system is in a ?run? (i.e., post injection) and the user hits the ChemStation STOP sign or the GC?s STOP button, the system aborts the run, no data processing can occur and the sequence is paused.
2)  If a system is in ?prerun? (i.e., pre injection) and the user hits the ChemStation STOP sign or the GC?s STOP button, the system aborts the run, no data processing can occur and the sequence is paused.

7890-Sequence Crashes user can get  GC Prerun Download Failed

Problem:

To reproduce the GC Prerun Download Failed Error by doing the following steps:

1. Create a sequence (a sequence that has never been run.).
2. Run the sequence and select Pause during the first run.
3. After the sequene pauses, select Sequence/Run Sequence and select No to start at line 2.
4. As soon as the Red Stop becomes available in the software select it and Yes to stop the run.
5. Run will stop with an error.
6. Reload the sequence and rerun the sequence.
7. This is where the sequence fails with a Run method error and the logbook reports GC Prerun download failed.

Temporary Solution:

Generally, closing the MSD ChemStation software and restarting the program will work.   Other times, the 7890A GC needs to be reboot.

When one sees a sequence fails with a Run method error and the logbook reports GC Prerun download failed, please close down the MSD ChemStation and reboot the 7890A GC.

DA Reprocessing looks for wrong file names when first sample is no longer first

Problem:

Run a sequence to a data directory, e.g. C:\msdchem\x\DATA\7-17-2006\ and then let the data files name themselves. 

For this example a sequence was using a CTC-PAL with 101 lines (to two trays).

At completion, looking in Explorer and sequence log, the first datafile is named 0101001.D, followed by 0201002.D, 0301003.D, etc.
Load the method and sequence in DA Reprocess.
Edit sequence so that only the fourth and fifth samples are going to be reprocessed (Cut lines 1,2,3, 6-101). This should be looking to reprocess 0401004.D and 0501005.D.
OK and Run sequence.
This fails with 'Error loading or no data' in Reprocess.log.
Looking at the actual report produced, it shows it is looking for 0401001.D and 0501002.D, which don't exist.

Temporary Solution:

It has been known that when reprocessing, using the standard chemstation autonaming procedures will cause problems if the sequence is altered - either lines removed or added.

Temporary Solution:

Turn OFF the ?quant? checkbox.  And, if you load the method in DATA ANALYSIS before instrument control, and do NO editing, you can do the full swap of levels (including full delete of the first one).  

You CAN?T remove that blank level.  Without the ID, it?s nameless and all the delete options work using the name.  You can only set all the responses to zero to basically disable that level.

One-line Description:

Barcodes are not being written/read correctly from gc files.

Problem:

I looked into the code.  The idd (hp68gc01.dll) sends a message (ILD_6890_QUERY_BARCODE) to the ild to get the barcode.  It then just copies that string to the correct location in the datafile.  In the Asterix ILD, the string is Unicode.  It looks like in Mustang that the string is not Unicode ? I checked gc90io.cpp.  The Mustang 6850 ILD probably has the same problem.

That would explain the differences you are seeing.

Problem:

As it stands, RTL with the MSD on a 7890 is not backwards compatible with existing methods developed on a 6890 if either constant flow mode was used or the method specifies the rear inlet.

RTL on the 7890 REQUIRES that the method be PRESSURE controlled, NOT FLOW.  Additionally, the COLUMN connected to the inlet being used for the sample injection MUST be configured as COLUMN #1 on the 7890 GC.

Problem:

This is similar to a problem to which we are currently having if we just use ATUNE.U.   The system will tune and save the results.   If the value is 2700 and you have an offset of 400 for the method, it will not look to see what value of offset.   It will be clipped to 3000.

After ATUNE.U has completed its tuning process then the gain adjust is done next.    If the system will use 3000 as the maximum value.

Problem:

Advanced Counters

When the 7890 went into ?advanced counters limit exceeded? mode.  Communicating with the 7890 with two different computers can cause mixed results.

On one PC, we disable the counters, THEN did an ?upload method from GC? from the GC EditMethod panel and then save the Method.  

There is a method-resident parameter (in the xml) that has no UserInterface to change the advance counter.  If the other computer has the advance counters on, it could turn them back on for the GC (the opposite is also true, if it was on then it is possible to turn it off).  

The user needs to be careful with the GC panel parameters and the online ChemStation parameters and how they are saved in the method.

7890 -- 2.	Can?t backflush a method operating in constant flow

Problem:

Backflush methodology requires setting AUX pressure to a high value during post-run and the 
Inlet pressure to a low value (ie 1 psig). 

7890A inlet electronics can?t convert this 1 psig setting to a flow and the 7890 sits in a ?not-ready? state for the entire length of post-run time and beeps continuously.

One-line Description:

GC Signal is only displayed during run.

Problem:

On a system with a sample split between the MSD and  GC detector, depending upon the type of GC being used the GC signal constantly, even when the run is over. This is useful because the user can see if the baseline is stable and has an acceptable offset value befor making a run. One could also see if the detector flame goes out during backflushing. 

This feature is not available for all models of GCs, one will only see the GC signal plot during the run.

Clock on Acquisition Display Does Not Display Elapsed Time in Post Run

Problem:

With a method that uses backflushing with a capillary flow technology splitter, the backflushing takes place during the post run state. 

The clock display in acquisition has always displayed the elapsed post run time in previous revs. With the 7890 as the GC, the post run clock will display the total run time which is being used and will not count down or up.

Problem:

In a system with a capillary flow technology splitter, using the Backflush Wizard which worked great. It suggested the conditions correctly. It asked if I wanted the suggested postrun backflush conditions downloaded to the method. The inlet postrun pressure (column one) was downloaded correctly. The defect is that the backflushing pressure WAS NOT downloaded. It was left at 0 psig.  The column would not be backflushed.

7890: Chemstation fails to show post run condition after run stopped early

Problem:

When a run is stopped early by pushing the stop sign icon and the method has a post run operation like backflushing, the hardware (GC and MSD) correctly perform the post run operations. The ChemStation, however, goes to green state and says the method is finished. This is troublesome, because the user has no idea that the oven is at post run temp (320 C) instead of cooling to initial temp (50C). Also, the MS has 75 mL/min He flow into it from the backflush operation. The failure to properly display post run state may invite the user to do something unfortunate like turn on the source and detector with a high flow into MS or open the oven and burn their fingers.

Front injection volume changed from  1.0 to 1.0

Problem:

The problem is when starting a run to do the OFN checkout from the Checkout menu, it soon generates and error of ?Front injection volume changed from 1.0 to 1.0? (please refer to the mslog file). The system stays in prep run and the software locks-up causing the user to manually close the application via Task Manager and power cycling the GC and the MSD.

Temporary Solution:

Restarting the GC by holding down the clear button will reset the firmware and GC parameters to the factory defaults.   This will then force the user to manually reconfigured the GC. 
In an offline session of the  MSD ChemStation copy the parameters of the default method down and then input them to the GC via the control panel.
Bring the MSD ChemStation online and then upload the parameters from the GC to the method, do not download the parameters from the method the GC.
Save the method and then run the method.   If this does not work then completely uninstall the software package and then reload the parameters.

Not being able to start the Data Analysis

Problem:

The software operating system is officially only supported on XP_SP2 English, Japanese and Chinese Version.

Be aware, that the following is NOT an official procedure!!

Because CE colleges could not get the G1701EA Rev.EA.01.xx correctly installed on XP_SP2 German Version, an Offline Instrument plus Data Analysis to work.

Here is the procedure:

Log on as Administrator to the local PC. 
Disable all firewalls and Virus Scanners 
Install at least a LaserJet as the printer 
Change the Regional Settings to English/US but leave the Keybd. At German! 
Install I/O-Libs and configure the TCP/IP Protocol ? select SICL-Lan ? don?t leave it at AUTO! 
Install the G1701EA Rev.EA.01.xx and reboot. 
Configure your instrument  - check the LAN and the MSD Firmware as usual 

Prior to the Chemstation Installation the OS is updated to .NetFramework 2.0.

The trick is #4 ? Regional Setting should be set before Dot-NetFramework 2.0 Installation,  
otherwise you end up in not being able to start the Data Analysis!!

The .NetFramework 2.0 is a multi language package and installs in conjunction to the Regional Settings

A word of warning:
If one should install the G1701EA Rev.EA.0x.xx onto a PC supplied and configured by the customers IT instead onto a bundle PC, make the Customer and his IT-People aware, they provide you for the installation with a local administrator account to install and configure the above. 

After you?ve finished the complete Install, make the IT-People aware, that they have to configure the Domain Users at least as Power User (Hauptbenutzer in german) with the Regional settings configured to English/US and full control to the windows Root Directory and the msdchem dir.

Problem:

Video problems.   Graphics "blow up" while running qedit.   Occurs on E.01 on XP, D.03.00 sp1 on XP.  Doesn't seem to occur on D.03.00 sp1 on Win2000.   We have duplicated on 4 different computers so far.  In both Enhanced and EnvQt mode.   

To duplicate this problem:
1. Load enhanced data analysis (I have also done this with EnvQt data analysis)
2. Load bnalist.m from envdemo subdirectory
3. Load any of the matching bna data files
4. go into qedit. let the system review all compounds. Set cycle time to 0.1 min (also fails when set to 1 min, just takes longer to complete the test) (also fails when double right clicking on the compound window to advance manually to the next compound, just wears out your clicking finger)
5. click on start, for automatic review
6. when the last compound has finished, click on stop. Select the 1st compound and click start again.

Autotune 219/69 criteria is not clear in a couple of help files on accept values

Problem:

The help file in the software says that the maximum should be the peak from mass 69.   What should be stated is that the ratios will be relative to peak 69 and that it may not be the base peak.

There is a summary of the expected limits for the tuning masses when the Tune Evaluaion is performed.

Autotune (ATUNE) --- Autotune maximizes instrument sensitivity over the mass range, using PFTBA masses 69, 219, and 502. Use this tune for applications requiring maximum sensitivity that do not require the traditional abundance (STUNE) ratios of 100% m/z 69, 35 - 85% m/z 219, and 1 - 5% m/z 502. This tune is also a good starting point for manual tuning for DFTPP or BFB. 

Autotune (ATUNE) --- Autotune adjusts all MSD parameters to predetermined target values. It finds the mass peaks, obtains adequate response and resolution, optimizes the response of 3 masses, optimizes response and resolution of other masses, and obtains accurate mass assignments.   You will need to autotune when the mass spectrometer system is first set up and after any maintenance has been performed on the MSD.

7890: Offline Instrument always brings up TCD for detector

Problem:

Instrumetn #1 is online and has a FID for the detector.  Save the method and the open it in Instrument #2 which is offline.   Instrument #2 will show the detector as TCD not as FID.

Offline instrument will ALWAYS show detector as TCD even if you bring in an existing method to edit offline.

Temporary Solution:

Under the instrument number you will find a configuration 'bin' file.   Copy this one from the instrument which is up and running to the instrument number which is giving you the TCD for the detector (offline).  

\msdchem\1\7890config.bin    (online --> copy this file)

Problem:

The comment/keyword string field in the sample log table gets cut off after 45 characters.  Certain keywords (BatchDir, Append, MethPath...) have a keyword string of a full path and name.

Temporary Solution:

Long files names are supported. Data file and method paths can be up to 100 characters long. The names of individual data files and methods can be up to 50 characters long. If these limits are exceeded by renaming or moving of these directories using standard tools of the operating system, the total path and file name length could exceed the 255 character limitation imposed by the file system when methods are stored with the data file.

HSS: RTL Calibration is awkward when using Headspace with the GC/MS

Problem:

G1701EA MSD Productivity Software makes it easy to do RTL calibration when you have an autosampler installed.  You put a sample in position 1 and make the five injections from the same vial.  

However, this is not possible when the headspace sampler is the injection source.  It should be possible to set up a headspace sequence of one blank followed by 5 samples in order to do RTL calibrations.  In headspace, you normally inject a sample only one time.  So you need to run five different samples for a single RTL calibration.

F02.d and F04.d contained data.ms, datasim.ms, tst1a.ch and tst2a.ch.
F01.d and f03.d contained datasim.ms, tst1a.ch and tst2a.ch.

Reports only print for f01.d and f03.d and those reports only show tst1a and tst2a.  While loading these data files in DA, they load and display the tst signals.  I

Could not load f02.d or f04.d, sequence log shows they are not valid data files.

(refer to Workaround)

Temporary Solution:

in order to PROPERLY configure the system for DUAL SIGNAL data collection, it is REQUIRED that for GC mode, one FRONT and one REAR detector signal be specified in the method.  For mixed MS/GC mode, the REAR or FRONT AND REAR detector signal(s) MUST be specified in the method.  If no REAR signals are selected, there will be NO DATA in the REAR datafile and a RunMethod Error will be generated.

Data Analysis will freeze if opening a file which is being acquired

Problem:

Running the MSD ChemStation with GC only configured.  While collecting data in instrument contor, and then in  Data Analysis selecte Load Data File. 
This will cause the Data Analysis to freeze.

Temporary Solution:

The "Snapshot" feature was designed for MS datafile types not GC datafile types.   One can view the GC data while it is being acquired via instrument control but can not edit or process the data until acquisition has been completed on that file.

7890 ReadBarcode$()  returns incorrect information - running sequence okay

Problem:

For 7890A GC
Using the READBARCODE$() from the command line one can obtain the barcode value from the GC, but reading it from the samplelogtable could result in bad feedback.
Using the READBARCODE$() for the 6890 works fine.  

In both cases, the reading of the actual barcode from the sample works during the running of the sequence.

Temporary Solution:

English returns a blank space in the sequence table. User can enter correct barcodes in these cells and the functions work correctly (inject anyway and abort on mismatch). Only the Read Barcode button is not working.

This issue is seen on the Japanese localize system, could also be an issue on the Chinese systems.

User will see garbage/corrupted information in the custom report depending upon the type of character type is used for the custome report template.
1) load va002.d
2) load va01.M (all coumpound names in quant DB are 2 byte characters)
3) start custom report
4) select va0.CRT
5) One will corrupted strings after 27 compounds
6)load va03.M(attached, all compound names are 1byte characters)
7) repeat 3)-4), you also see corrupt string, too.
8) load va02.M(number is 1 byte.(1,2-)
9) repeat 3)-4, but this time change the character type for the custom report header,it has no problem.

Temporary Solution:

Using 1byte katakana for header part of custom report template.
1byte?katakana of compound name become garbage/corrupt string.


(Hankaku-katakana is 1 byte katakana)
(Zenkaku-katakana is 2 byte katakana)

For Compound names in Custom Reports we MUST use Zenkaku Katakana characters.

Or
Please use Zenkaku-katakana as compound name.
Compound name become garbage/corrupt strings in custom report if you use Hankaku-katakana as compound name.

Instrument Control and Calibration shutdown

Problem:

Vista systems using power save options.  Frequently leaving the MSD ChemStation idle and having the PC set with power save options, onc can get an Instrument Control and Calibration shutdown.  

inWhen looking  the logbook, the following error:
"Could not get control of 7890 GC; already controlled by SWEENEYVISTA/msinsctl.exe"

SweeneyVista is the system that I see the error.

Temporary Solution:

This was a function of power setting.  Turn off the power save options and/or log out of Instrument Control while not using the instrument.

Problem:

Testing 6890 -> 7890 method conversion on GCMSD ChemStataion,
1) create a Split methods on 6890-5973 system.
   (6890; FR inlet is S/S, FR detactor is FID)
   Verify column connected; IN is Front. OUT is vacuum.
2) open the 6890 method on 7890-5975 system.
   (7890; FR inlet is S/S, FR detactor is FID)
  Verify column connected; IN is Front. OUT is vacuum.

Some parameters are not transfer to 7890 correctly.
Inlet; Total Flow, Split ratio & Split Flow
Column; Control mode

Temporary Solution:

If a system was using a method from a system with a 6890-MSD prior to G1701EA then the converter will translate the method.   
If a system was using a method from a system with a 6890-MSD built on a G1701EA platform then this will introduce problems, methods on the G1701EA has default parameters for the 6890 and 7890 built into the methods, while methods prior to this did not.  
Will be easier to print out the 6890 method and update the 7890 via the GC keypad or ChemStation manually.

Opening Edit GC Config panel immediately downloads params to GC

Problem:

In GC Edit Configuration, all the barcode options were turned on and selected Ok. The params downloaded to the GC. 
Then, from the GC, all of the values were turned off for the barcode.  As soon as the Edit GC Config panel opened, the barcode options on the GC all turned on (the were still checked on the config panel).  
This will also occur for valves and other devices.  

Please refer to the Workaround for details.  This is related to the 7890config.bin file under the instrument directory and under the method.

Temporary Solution:

edit GC configuration behaviour in gc/ms software:
When you are running gc/ms software, the software is in control of the configuration. When you are not running the software, the gc is responsible for its configuration. When the GC/MS system starts up, the configuration is read from the GC and the method, if necessary, is resolved. 
At this time, the SW and the instrument have the same configuration. When you EDIT CONFIGURATION, the software's version of the method is downloaded to the instrument. This ensure that the HW and SW configurations are the same before any editing occurs. At this point in time (aka Edit Configuration), the operator is "free" to change the configuration from the SW or from the HW. If the configuration is changed from the HW, it is neccessary to select the "GET GC Configuration" from the Connnection tab of the EDIT GC Configuration panel.

In short, there are two times when the GC configuration should be changed, whenever the Chemstation is not running OR when in the EDIT GC Configuration panel is active.

Can't Run RTL with 7890 on Method Previously Locked with 6890

Problem:

Loaded a couple of different methods that were collected on a 6890. The method transfer seemed to occur.  
Now go to Acquire RTL Calibration, after selecting Yes to Overwrite the previous data, it just hung and no other panels appeared. 
If you select Abort, it will abort the process.  If a previously loaded acquired RTL method that was run on a 7890, the other panels appear and the calibration starts.

Temporary Solution:

This is related to a ?lock? problem when the method 6890 to 7890 converter (mth6890to7890 command) is executed. The RTLOCK folder in the method is locked to Instrument Control (the parent application), and it cannot be deleted. 


Restarting the ChemStation is an effective work around.

HS w/Proceed handshake does not complete DA when GC not ready; software freezes

Problem:

Create a short HS method and let the GC go into an unresolvable Not Ready state (like a pressure shutdown).
Run Method. The HS does its entire cycle correctly and the GC goes into a 'run', indicated by the Run light on the keypad. However, the HS Job Log never checks the 'Analyzed' checkbox.
Sequence Cancels, does not Complete.
Floating window shows endlessly 'GC Acquisition: Waiting for GC ready...'
The software freezes. Abort is inactive. Software must be terminated in task manager.
Data Directory reveals that no 'acqmeth.txt' or 'GC.ini' files were created.

This did not happen in ChemStation. The Job Log completed and there was no lockup. All relevant files were created, including .ch.

Get "Host System Not Ready" message

Problem:

Sometimes when starting a run, MSD ChemStation says "Waiting for GC Ready" and the GC Status window says "Host system not ready." The system sits in this state and does not make an injection.  
Occasionally the system will times out, but there's no indication that this is causing my problem.  

This is expected behavior.  You typically have to go to the keyboard of the GC to determine what else is not ready.

MSD exhibits a High Vac Pump Not Ready (MS fault bit 7) during pumpdown while connected to MSD ChemStation

Problem:

MSD exhibits High Vac Pump Not Ready (MSD Fault Status bit 7 or MS Status Error Number 128 (2^7) hex 80) during pumpdown while the MSD ChemStation is connecting to MSD. Other than this error message, there appears to be no problem with the vacuum system. This problem occurs intermittently and it is dependent upon the type of pumping system being used. MS fault bit 7 stays latched so the MSD appears to not be ready even though it is with firmware version 5.02.04 on the MS. The software version is G1701EA E.02.00. 

There are no poblems if the communication to the ChemStation is initiated AFTER the MSD has completed its pumpdown cycle. But if the communication to the ChemStation is initiated BEFORE the MSD is done with its pumpdown cycle, then the MSD Fault Status bit 7 will be locked. You will notice that the MSD will come ready and the setpoint temperatures will be downloaded when the MSD is ready. If this is a true error message then the setpoint temperatures would not have been downloaded.

Temporary Solution:

To clear the MSD Fault Status bit 7 error message, choose one option below:

Option 1:
  MSON  --> on the command line
  followed by 
  MSOFF --> on the command line

Option 2:
  This problem occurs intermittently and the fix (workaround) is to power cycling the MSD to clear this error.

A point patch (msinsctl.mac and chkflt.mac) is available as a temporary fix.

Fix Information:

To install the point patch:

1. In the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe, rename the existing files from:
msinsctl.mac to msinsctl-orig.mac
chkflt.mac to chkfltl-orig.mac
2. Copy the new files to the directory C:\msdchem\MSexe .

One-line Description:

More than 8 characters in SLT column causes formatting issues in printing seq brief format

Problem:

If there are more than 8 characters in a column in the Sample Log Table (SLT), when you perform Sequence > Print Sequence > Brief Format, the field with more than 8 characters is printed in the next row, instead of on the same row as the sample line.

Temporary Solution:

Limit the column in SLT to 8 characters or less. If there are more than 8 characters in any SLT column, choose "Full Format" when printing the sequence.

Fix Information:

The Full Format sequence printout provides a different format where each sequence line and its associated column headers (i.e. Type, Vial, Method, and Datafile) are presented in a section, clearly separated from the next sequence line's information. .

Keyword: Tune

One-line Description:

MassGain and MassOffs can not changed/saved

Problem:

Within NCI tuning try to manual change the MassGain and MassOffs values in order to align the mass axis correctly.

Saving those parameter works, but loading the saved tune file will show the old parameter back.

Manual adjustment of the NCI tune looks like required since the tune algorithm does not properly adjust the mass axis.

One-line Description:

Autotune report printout is cutoff on right side

Problem:

The Autotune report printout is cutoff on the right side if it is printed on Windows 7 PC with "HP LaserJet P3011/P3015 PCL6" printer driver. The last digit/character will be missing on the right side of the page.

Temporary Solution:

The solution is to use "HP Universal Printing PCL6" driver for the HP LaserJet P3015 printer.

Please visit the HP website at http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html to download the "HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6" appropriate for your PC's Windows operating system. 

Once the driver is installed on the PC, you need to go to Start > Devices and Printers, right-click on the printer icon and select "Printer properties". Under the "Advanced" tab, select "HP Universal Printing PCL6" from the Driver pull-down menu and then click Apply.

Fix Information:

With the release of G1701EA E.02.02 SP1, the Agilent MSD Productivity ChemStation bundled PCs will come pre-loaded with the  "HP Universal Printing PCL6" driver. .
