Agilent Early Maintenance Feedback
Page 6
Agilent Early Maintenance Feedback
• Set-up the Counters within the Agilent Data Systems
• Based on the configuration of the GC
• User-defined early maintenance feedback counters
• Notification of the Warning and Service Due
Page 7
Agilent Early Maintenance Feedback
• Some EMF counters have default limits; however the maintenance required will depend on your conditions
Another way to set them up:• When you perform
maintenance look at the settings of the counters.
• Set the warning limits to the amount.
• Check the counters next time when performing maintenance and adjust the limits.
Page 8
EMF Counters appear in Instrument Actuals and Reports
Instrument actuals are displayed next to set-points in the data system.

Sleep/Wake Mode
Page 10
Resource Conservation: Sleep/Wake Mode
• Schedule the time of the Wake and Sleep Methods either as “custom”, “7 days a week” or “Sat/Sun”
• Manually put the instrument to sleep by clicking on “Sleep” on the “Instrument” menu
• Instrument will still go to Sleep or Wake mode even if the data system is not connected for any reason.

7890A Enhancements Kit, Other
7890A Logic Board Enhancements Kit (G3444A)- Makes 7890A GC ready for most (but not all) 7890B GC enhancements. For example:• “Integrated Intelligence” features:- Early Maintenance Feedback (EMF), Sleep/Wake modes - Method Translation Calculator (via CDS)- Enable 2-way communication – 7890A/5977A
• Serial Port (not “RS-232”):- 2nd communication port for Remote Advisor- Optional Bar Code Reader connects directly to GC
[also a version to connect to USB/PC] • FPD Plus
7890B Only (Cannot add this to 7890A via G3444A, or otherwise)• 2nd Multimode Inlet (MMI) mounted on 7890B GC• 3rd detector as uECD - developing IDO countries for enviro/pesticides (non-GC/MS)• Factory installed Backflush (mid-column/PUU), Option #204 (est. CPL Mar’13)• Removable GC Oven Door Accessory (primarily for GC/MS users)

Acquisition Method Viewer ChemStation Edition
ProblemI need to review the Acquisition Method parameters before downloading to the instrument. I do not want to trigger Method Resolution.
SolutionAcquisition Method Viewer-provides a way to view the acquisition method parameters.
Page 33
Single Sample Workflow (1/2)ChemStation Edition
• The Navigation Table now shows the acquisition method as well as the data analysis method.
• A fly-over indicates the path to the data analysis method.
Page 34
Single Sample Workflow (2/2)ChemStation Edition
• In the Last Result Mode it is now possible to save the data analysis parameters last used (from DA.M) to a master method.
• Update any master method with the data analysis parameters last used (from DA.M).• Update the corresponding master method with the data analysis parameters last used (from
DA.M).• Combine the data analysis parameters last used (from DA.M) with acquisition parameters from
any master method and save as a new master method.

EZCHROM EDITION
Page 36
OpenLAB CDS EZChrom Edition A.04.05
• Online instrument will always remain in Monitor mode. When “Result Set” is opened at the end of Single/Sequence run the Instrument will remain in Monitor mode.
• In “Result Review Mode” when a user opens a method, sample prep, sequence, or data file, the last opened method and sequence file, if available, will be kept open/opened rather than being set to un-assigned while closing the “Result Set”.
• Display and positioning of windows for instrument setup values and instrument curves is now persisted.
• Option to select Local Time or UTC in exported reports.• Display instrument curves on IR report.• Update signal displayed in the online plot automatically whenever a method is
downloaded to the instrument.• API support for automation of LC driver: Set instrument parameters from a 3rd party
application (for e.g., flow rate, solvent composition) for Agilent LC driver.
Page 37
OpenLAB CDS EZChrom Edition A.04.06
•The Automation Tool Kit will now work with old applications like EZLink!
• Agilent will be wanting to test this new release in the January/February time frame with companies that can’t upgrade because of the Tool Kit.
• Contact myself and I will get you on the list!• THIRD PARTY DRIVER UPDATE• Shimadzu Drivers Coming very soon! Classical C++ Drivers for 2010 and series 10
instruments.• New Shimadzu drivers already released.• Thermo available soon for Trace Ultra• Focus GC, Trace 1300, TriPlus, TriPlus RSH, AI/AS 3000, AI/AS 1310• PE Drivers available from VWR

AIC Virtualization: EZChrom Edition
• Test and document topologies where parts of the system are deployed under VMware (either VMware workstation or VMware ESX).
Topology • EZChrom Edition Distributed
System with ECM• Clients on a VMware ESX server,
AIC on physical machines• Support statement: Supported
and recommended

Better migration support:ChemStation rev. B/ rev. C on one ECM
ChemStation rev. B/ OpenLAB CDS ChemStation Edition on one ECM • Support of ChemStation rev. B and OpenLAB CDS ChemStation Edition on
one ECM system: With ChemStation rev. B and OpenLAB CDS rev. C on one ECM system, document limitations, e.g., the ability to reprocess ChemStation rev. B data in ChemStation rev. C, but not vice versa.
Mixed version clients on the latest OpenLAB Shared Services server• EZChrom: Software upgrades in mixed environments: In a Distributed or
Networked environment, allow a "mixed version" of clients running with the latest OpenLAB Shared Services server to minimize downtime during an upgrade.
Page 41
Mixed topology Networked Workstation / Distributed System [ChemStation]
• Test and document an OpenLAB CDS ChemStation Edition system mixing Networked Workstation and AIC on one OpenLAB Shared Services server.
• One use case for such a mixed system is to do the data acquisition on the networked workstation, e.g. with instruments that are not supported on the AIC (e.g., GPC, ELSD, GPIB instruments) and then use the AIC for data reprocessing.
• Another use case is data acquisition and reprocessing for some instruments (e.g. GPC, ELSD, GPIB instruments, …) on the networked workstation, and data acquisition and reprocessing for other instruments on the AIC.
