In many cases you can move directly to the item of interest
by pressing [Config][device].
3 When the Configure Device Display opens, the cursor should
be on the Unconfigured field. Press [Mode/Type] and follow the
GC prompts to assign resources to the device.
4 After assigning resources, the GC prompts for you to power
cycle the GC. Turn the GC power switch off and then on.
When the GC starts, select the device just assigned the GC
resources for further configuration if needed. When accessed,
its mode should indicate Configured and the other configuration
properties are displayed.
Setting configuration properties
A device’s configuration properties are constant for an
instrument hardware setup unlike method settings which can
change from sample run to sample run. An example of a
configuration setting is the gas type flowing through a
pneumatic device or the operation temperate limit of a device.
To change the setting configuration properties for a Configured
device:
1 Press [Config] on the GC keypad and select a device from the
list, then press [Enter].
In many cases you can move directly to the item of interest
by pressing [Config][device].
2 Scroll to the device setting and change the property. This can
involve making a selection from a list using [Mode/Type],
using [On/Yes] or [Off/No], or entering a numeric value. Press
[Info] for help on changing numeric settings, or see the
section of this document describing the specific
configuration of the device.
