1Concepts and General Tasks

Concepts

This manual provides symptoms associated with headspace

sampler (HS) hardware or associated chromatographic

output, Not Ready messages, and other common issues. It

also provides the corresponding tasks to perform should you

experience these symptoms.

Each section describes a problem and provides a bulleted list

of possible causes for you to troubleshoot. These lists are not

intended for use in the development of new methods. (For

help when developing methods, see the Advanced Operation

Guide.) Proceed with troubleshooting under the assumption

that method(s) are working properly.

This manual also includes common troubleshooting tasks as

well as a list of information needed prior to calling Agilent

for service.

How to troubleshoot using this manual

Use the following steps as a general approach to

troubleshooting:

1Observe the symptoms of the problem.

2Check the HS status displays and logs, especially the

sequence log and event log. Check the GC logs, events,

and display. If using a data system, check its logs also.

These logs may contain valuable information that directly

indicates the root cause of problem.

3Consider what may have changed recently. See “What

Changed?”.

4Consider whether the symptom can be caused by the GC.

5Look up the symptoms in this manual using the table of

contents or the search tool. Review the list of possible

causes of the symptom.

6Check each possible cause or perform a test that narrows

the list of possible causes until the symptom is resolved.

The [Status] key

Be sure to also use the [Status] and [Info] keys on the HS

keypad while using this troubleshooting information. These

keys will display additional useful information related to the

status of the HS and its components.

Error conditions

If a problem occurs, a status message appears. If the

message indicates broken hardware, more information may

be available. Press [Status] to cycle through the status views.

Look for more detailed error messages.

10 Agilent 7697A Troubleshooting

1Concepts and General Tasks

What Changed?

When troubleshooting, keep the following points in mind:

•If the problem occurred suddenly, look for what changed.

Often sudden issues occur due to discrete events, such as

maintenance, changes in gas supplies, changing to a

different method or analysis, a defective part, and so

forth. Resolving a sudden change often involves changing

a consumable item, loading the correct method, or

replacing a defective part.

•If the problem happens gradually, for example, a steadily

rising baseline or gradual increase in ghost peak areas,

look for routine maintenance or changes in the method to

resolve the problem. These problems tend to be related to

the sample, sample preparation, the method, and the

consumables (such as the analytical column).
