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 #.

One-line Description:

LED tests as a part of the optics test does not apply to a G2939A Bioanalyzer

Problem:

The HW optics test exists of 2 sub-tests - one for the laser and one for the LED.
The G2939A Bioanalyzer does not have an LED, hence this part of the test shoulld be "Not Applicable". Instead the protocol reports only the unit without value (FU).
The LED test applies to all supported instruments except the G2939A.

One-line Description:

Y-axis mismatch between the Chromatogram label in the EQR and the LabSolutions SW

Problem:

Using LC data from the Shimadzu Labsolutions SW, the Y-axis label in the Equipment Qualification Report (EQR) will show a different label compared to reports from the native data system.
In the Labsolutions the user can configure the Y-axis label (uAU, mAU or AU) where the EQR always shows the label as "Volts".

The actual scaling in the EQR is equivalent to the scaling as "AU" in the LabSolutions software.

IQ: Physical HD size is not fully correct

Problem:

On my system:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 63
tracks/cylinder: 240
cylinders: 3876

So drive size is:
512 x 63 x 240 x 3876 = 30005821440 bytes
/1024 = 29302560 KB
/1024 = 28616 MB
/1024 = 27.94 GB

The physical HD is reported as 28.61 GB and the logical drive as 27.93 GB (one partition). So the logical drive uses the correct calculation, but the physical one is wrong, it uses MB/1000 instead of MB/1024.

1100 OQ with ALS Extended Volume Kit

Problem:

Steve,

I tested for this issue yesterday and did not fail the test.  However, I guess that in some 
instruments this could possibly be a problem.  If we look at this from just an instrument 
volume issue, the typical delay volumes are in the 250ul range and if we are adding another 
2000ul with the 900ul head and 1200ul loop, that still adds up to perhaps 2500ul total.  The 
test runs the pump at 2 ml/min, so it should take about a minute and a quarter to get to the 
flow cell.  In the flush method, we pump at 2ml/min, 100% B for eight minutes, and then 0% for 
the last two minutes.  In other words, we have two minutes to get all of the Acetone out of the 
flow cell before we start the gradient method.  I will make a PVCS entry to extend the time spent 
at 0% B in the flush method to 4 minutes, making the entire flush method 12 minutes long.

============================= 
John Elliott 
============================= 

 
Hello Supporters

Here is an issue reported from an ASP in the UK:

***
When the Gradient Composition test is run on an 1100 System that has the ALS Extended Volume Kit (900uL Head + 1200uL Loop) installed the Acetone is not completely flushed out of the system after the first (Flush) run is made before the second (Gradient) tests starts. The suggested resolution is to extend the stop time of the flush methods from ten (10) to twelve (12) minutes.
***

I have not verified this.

Cheers

Steve

KPR#:228  Product:Classic Compliance  Analytical_Compliance_1100  N/A

Keyword: OQ

One-line Description:

Enhance the 1100 OQ to include a "gross" injection accuracy test.

Problem:

If we enhance the injection precision test to include a check of the mean response for the standard peaks (c.f. GC OQ/PV), this would use a very loose limit and would show that there was no GROSS error in the injections.

John,

Sure, an acceptable injection precision and linearity does allow one to produce usable calibration curves and data on the same instrument.  The problem arises when the user compares the data produced on separate but similar instruments.

The reason I propose this question now is that I have a customer with a 6-month old G1313A autosampler that has been injecting approx. 1/2 of what it should since delivery.  The customer purchased only our IQ services with the install, then performed an OQ/PV protocol (from the Chemstation Verification window) on his own.  After using the 1100 over the next 6 months, he transferred a method from this instrument and noticed peak areas twice what they were on the new instrument.  He carefully reviewed the OQ/PV reports from the new instrument and compared them with older 1100s in his lab and noticed peak areas for the injection precision that were 1/2 of what they should be.  To confirm, we weighed the water that was removed and transferred and determined that this new G1313A was indeed injecting half of what it should.

Further investigation has revealed that the metering drive is not functioning properly.  For example, the "change piston" function does not fully retract the metering piston.  I'm presently awaiting shipment of a replacement sampling assembly and I'm hoping this will fix the problem.    

Even if the customer purchased our OQ/PV services with the installation, we would not have necessarily detected the unacceptable injector accuracy.  We measure accuracy on our pumps, detectors and column compartments, but, for some reason, not our autosamplers.  That seems to unnecessarily leave a large hole in a QA firewall to allow "small" defects to become big problems.  I'm making plans to review OQ/PV reports from newly installed LCs over the past year to make sure this is an isolated case.

GC/MS protocol changes-Add CofA, and signature/date entries

Problem:

Some questions and complains regarding our compliance protocols
and tools for IQ/OQ.
Hope You can use this expirence from the field !

1/ GCMS installation and IQ/OQ:
Together with shipment we receve testsamples but only some with
Certificat ! That meens: go onsite, look for lot. no., return to office
and get the missing Certificat's, and return to Customer. Wast of time !
The problem is with EI and CI testsamples.
Can you please ask factory to add this Certificats to the testsamples ?

2/ GCMS IQ/OQ protocol:
Our Customers demand that every time you print ANY data/model/serial number
in a protocol it must be signed with a correct date. In GCMS IQ/OQ protocol
there is a lot of missing signature/date frames.

Problem:

The 1100 OQ with well plate and fraction collector, fraction collector test needs an additional wait step after the inject step in the injector program.  Current methods do not have this step which results in the 2nd peak being much larger than the first.  This is a result of unswept sample being carried over to the 2nd injection.

One-line Description:

UV-Vis Photometric Accuracy

Problem:

Hello John,

I just wanted to bring two small issues to your attention regarding the UV-Vis OQ/PV documentation.  

The first issue has to do with the absorbance range specified for the 60.06 mg/L potassium dichromate solution that is used in the Photometric Accuracy test.  Both the UV-Vis OQ/PV document, and the Certificate of Analysis that comes with the OQ/PV Kit No.1, list the following wavelengths/absorbances:  235/0.748, 257/0.868, 313/0.292 and 350nm/0.644A.  The Verification Certificate which is printed out by the software for the test, however, gives the same wavelengths but the following absorbance ranges:  235/0.738-0.758, 257/0.855-0.875, 313/0.282-0.302 and 350nm/0.630-0.650A.  Should the ranges for the measurements at 257 nm and 350 nm be: 257/0.858-0.878, and 350nm/0.634-0.654A (i.e.: the certified absorbance +- 0.01 A)?

Secondly, the UV-Vis ChemStation OQ/PV documentation lists the part number of the General Purpose UV-Vis software as G1115A in the "Available Software" section but the correct part number is G1115AA.

LCSYSSUT.VAL fails using ChemPlus B.01.20 on Win NT 4.0 SP6a

Problem:

Dear Sibylle,
 
The OQ/PV on LC Chemstation A.06.03 has failed on system suitability test when running the 'Verftest.mac' macro. (see attached files).
 
I did the same procedure, IQ,OQ/PV on 2 identical system configuration:
HPLC1100 with LC Chemstation A.06.03
connected via GPIB 82350 (PCI) driver rev' L
PC - latest CompaqHP with win NT4 SP 6a
some software running in the background like anti-virus etc'
built in IQ test passed (all identical files copied correctly)
 
On the first system, everything passed easily, but on the second, the OQ failed over and over again on the same part - system suitability test that is comprised of 2 parts: integration - passed, quantitation - failed, giving a deviation like table of area's that are wrong.

To update you on the Chemstation OQ/PV issue, the test is still failing on the same LCSYSSUIT part.
We last talked on the phone, and agreed that the customer should replace the PC. after installing everything from scratch on a new PC, again the OQ failed on the same part exactly.
 
The customer uses PC's of the following description:
hp Compaq d 530 cmt
d530 c/p2.8A/40bc/512E/4 HE
S/N - CZC4230SQV
P/N - PB600A#ABT
 
Installed, Win NT4, S.P 6 Revised S.P 6a, 256MB ram, 18.7GB hard disk free space.
I've tried OQ/PV on Chemstation A.06.03, A.07.01, A.09.01.
HPIB card - 82350 PCI driver Ver, L
HPLC1100 using std' degasser, quat' pump', als, tcc, vwd.
Chemstation IQ was ran is passed every time.

Doing the LCSYSSUT.VAL verification test manually, it passes.

LC Drift Values show dicrepancy with manual calculations

Problem:

Results of an investigation by Stefan Meyer

1. Linear regression of the data points after export from ChemStation will result in a drift value in units mAU/min, while ChemStation gives the drift in units of mAU/h. Joan-Miquel's result would then be -4.39 mAU/h. Still a difference of a factor of about -1.5, but at least we are in the same order of magnitude.
2. Compliance protocol states that the data are divided into 20 sections of 1 min. The slope is calculated separately for each section, and the drift is the mean values of the 20 slope values.
BUT: This is not true! In fact, the OQPV test simply makes the linear regression over all data points and takes the slope value as drift! You can easily verify this by using the normal Performance and Noise report with noise range 0 - 20 min. There you get a drift of -2.878. Excel also yields the same result when doing the regression over all values with positive time values. This is the source of the large difference of the results.
3. The OQPV test result eliminates the "-" of the result by stating that the drift is 2.878.

OQ: Missing instructions for MVP Database/Study creation

Problem:

There are a couple fo issues, performing an OQPV for a MVP system, using ChemPlus b.01.40:

1.) Performing the OQ for ChemStation A.10.02 with ChemStore B.03.02 + Sec.Pack B.03.02 AND MVP A.02.01, the instructions to perform the MVP/ChemStore/ChemStation Integration Loop test for MVP are incomplete in the UI (B.01.40) for test 1 . The instructions are included in the final document and in the example protocol. Just following the instructions given in the Wizard/UI, it's not possible to create the MVP-study and execute the test.
2.) For test 3 step 3 there is a mismatch within the Wizard as the UI tells "view the current logbook" as the "help-function" tells to open and "view the sequence logbook".
It's not clear, which logbook should be used. The final protocol reports the usage of the Sequence logbook.

3. However, after the sequence is completed, all data are getting transfered to the databse and will be removed from the ChemStation. Same happens for the Seq.log. So following the instructions in the protocol, an error will be reported from the ChemStation. The Sequence must be reloaded from the DB for perform this test. 

4.) The expected result (MTHVAL.S) does not match the reported result (MTHVAL11.S; see SCR#667).

Problem:

The AA OQ wavelength accuracy is run only for Agilent AA systems using several wavelengths associated with different elements such as Copper, Potassium, Arsenic and Sodium. However, for Sodium the actual wavelength used for the test is the Neon 585.3 line and this has caused concerns from an auditor from the Indian National Board of Accreditation at a customer site. The procedure, as written in the Validate application of the SpectrAA software, does require the use of a certified Sodium lamp certified for a wavelength of 589.0, one of the Sodium "D" lines, however, the automatic test in Validate actually uses the Neon 585.3 wavelength that is always present in the Sodium lamp spectrum.
The request is to include in the EQP review document verbage so that it is clear that the Neon wavelength is actually used for the test.

EQP Editor: Always select 'discard' when generating a new SAD for a different technique

Problem:

When you've generated a first approval document (SAD) for a customer for one technique and all is kept at default and you want to generate a 2nd SAD for a different technique, the question is asked to keep or discard all changes. In case you select 'discard', the previous technique is still remembered and referred to in the protocol details although nothing for this specific technique is present in the SAD.

Temporary Solution:

When generating an SAD for a 2nd technique (which is also kept at default setpoints/limits), ALWAYS select discard to avoid the protocol details containing info regarding the technique loaded before this one.

Fix Information:

This will be fixed in a future revision of EQP editor.

One-line Description:

Vial locations will not show when vial verification is turned on in combination with an FLD

Problem:

The 4 different vial locations that can be used when the vial verification test is turned on (as part of injection precision) will not show in the tasklist/EQR when the detector in use is an FLD. The status for the vial verification test is listed in the EQR. Missing of the vial locations in the EQR has no impact on the evaluation of the injection precision test. 
This issue is introduced with LC.01.92 and only applies to the FLD. 
The vial locations show correctly in the tasklist/EQR when any other detector is used for this test.

Temporary Solution:

Run the vial verification test with a different detector.
When the FLD is the only available detector and the vial verification test is turned on as part of injection precision, add a comment to the EQR recording the different locations being used.

Fix Information:

This issue will be fixed in LC.01.94 protocol release.

Qualification documents cann't be created by using Autodoc V.2.5

Problem:

Using ACS V.2.5 with the 1100 analytical database B.03.10, the document (IQ or OQ/PV) is not created. After selecting the configuration from the UI and accepting the review of the selected instrument, Word is opened but it shows only one empty page. Using ACS V.2.4 everything works fine. This problem has been reported from some CE's, after they received new Omnibooks (HP/Compaq NC6000, Win2000 SP3 or 4). The document "Common problems with ACS" and the corresponding Word-stettings didn't solved the problem. Regional settings have been checked too.

TPQ procedure might kill liner inactivity

Problem:

The procedure describes to turn off the gass flows. If you do this with a de-activated liner, you will make it active again.
The protocol should state to use one liner as a tool to avoid application problems for the customer, or set a low flow for the inlet (but this might influence the reading as the gas flow is passing the probe and cooling down the probe if the flow is too high.
