Tcc Diagnostics; Recording The Temperature Signals; Operational Qualification And Performance Qualification - Thermo Scientific Dionex UltiMate 3000 Series Operating Instructions Manual

5.6.3 TCC Diagnostics

You can check the performance of the TCC gas sensor:
1. On the Control menu, select Diagnostics.
The Control menu is visible only when a control panel is open.
2. Click Gas Sensor Test on the diagnostics test list.
The Diagnostics dialog box lists all tests that are available for the devices in the current
timebase.
3. A wizard guides you through the test. For more information about the test, see the
Chromeleon Help.
If the test fails, check the Chromeleon Diagnostics Messages section for a short description of
possible causes along with recommended courses of action (→ page 91).

5.6.4 Recording the Temperature Signals

On the Configuration page, the Temperature Signal check boxes are selected by default
when the TCC is installed and configured in Chromeleon (→ page 42).
• Temperature Signal generates the channel for recording the temperature signal of the
TCC (channel name: ColumnOven_Temp).
• Cooler Temp. Signal generates the channel for recording the temperature signal of the
post-column cooler (channel name: PostColumn_Cooler_Temp). The signal will be
recorded only if you have also selected the post-column cooler check box on the
Components page (→ page 39).
If a problem occurs, the temperature signals can provide helpful information to identify
and eliminate the source for the problem. Therefore, always record the temperature signals.

5.6.5 Operational Qualification and Performance Qualification

To check and document the performance of the HPLC system, perform Operational and
Performance Qualification. All materials required for performing qualification and detailed
instructions are available on request.
