Agilent Defect ID - 292088
FIX or WORKAROUND
Ensure that the Agilent G1888 headspace communication port 10000 to 10010 is not blocked by the firewall. If the port is unblocked, do the following:
- If any previous configuration is available in the Agilent Pre-Configuration utility, ensure that it has been removed from the acquisition client node.
- If any previous Empower system was created with G1888, it is best to delete the system from Empower.
- Turn OFF the GC, HS, and acquisition client or LAC/E.
- Turn ON the GC and HS. Note the Vial size, Vial EPC connection, Pressure Units, and Carrier connection values from the Headspace front panel.
- Turn ON the LAC/E and, in the Agilent Pre-Configuration window, ensure that the values noted from the Headspace front panel match those in Agilent Pre-Configuration under Instrument settings. If not, select from the drop-down list to match the hardware configuration.
- Click the "Upload from Instrument" button.
