After saving the new configuration in Configuration Editor, we rebooted ChemStation and immediately got a " Rapid Control Adapter Module" error. We deleted this apparently correct configuration in Configuration Editor and added a new instrument with the same information. Remember that this was NOT available in ChemStation (see my previous posts in this thread), and the IP address line was blank and NOT editable in ChemStation. This program immediately displayed an instrument configuration window with the correct GC name and most importantly the correct IP address of the GC. We loaded the Agilent Configuration Editor (on our PC: Start>All Programs>Agilent Chemstation>Configuration Editor). I still think this is corrupted ChemStation configuration file since the configuration window doesn't know the GC's IP address as described in my original post.īefore I got to your post we did the following which appears to have worked: (Obviously no cabling/hardware has been disturbed for years and this problem started after a software crash.) The successful ping proves that there isn't a hardware/connection problem between the PC snd the GC.
It's ChemStation that can't access the GC. So we can't make changes or load anything from the GC.īy the way the GC clearly has the last loaded method.
Remove lc instrument from agilent chemstation configuration manual#
Restarting the program with the default method as the last loaded gives the error, "Resetting to manual injection For method 'Def_GC.M' injection source 'GC injector' conflicts with injection source. Attempting to load the default GC gives the error: "Do not resolve method" is not an option in the method resolving window and exiting the window gives the same result as clicking "OK".
