Adding a Generic Detector Interface

Preliminary Operations

Getting Started

Thermo Scientific
This section provides instructions for installing the detector and control modules of the Generic
Detector Interface on your TRACE 1600/1610 GC or TRACE 1600 Auxiliary Oven.
WARNING This operation must be carried out by authorized and trained Thermo Fisher
Scientific Service Field Engineers.
Before starting, the following preliminary operation must be carried out.
1. Put the GC in standby condition.
2. Cool the oven, injectors and detectors to room temperature.
Note By pressing the Maintenance button, the GC cool down is automatically
carried out.
3. Power off the GC.
a. Push down the power switch (breaker), located at the back of the instrument, to the
position O.
b. Unplug the power cable from the AC Input connector into the back of the GC and
from the wall outlet.
CAUTION If the GC is coupled to a TRACE 1600 Auxiliary Oven, unplug the power
cable from the AC Input connector into the back of the TRACE 1600 Auxiliary Oven
and from the wall outlet.
ATTENTION Si le GC est couplé à un four auxiliaire TRACE 1600, débranchez le câble
d'alimentation du connecteur d'alimentation CA à l'arrière du four auxiliaire TRACE
1600 et de la prise murale.
4. If external modules are present, unplug the power cable from the AC Input connector of
each external module, and from the wall outlet.
For properly installing the Generic Detector Interface see the following sections:
