Thermo Scientific TRACE 1300 Series GC: Program Setup with GSV Inlet

A Program for a TRACE 1300 GC with a GSV (Gas Sampling Valve) inlet will not properly trigger the start of the run without some special modification.  

When using a TRACE 1300 GC with a GSV inlet, keep the following in mind:

Timebase Configuration

You must first include a Remote Inject device in the Chromeleon Server Configuration. This is true even if an autosampler is also part of your server configuration. For detailed information, refer to  Thermo Scientific TRACE 1300 Series GC: Installation.

After the timebase is configured, you can set up a program in the Chromeleon Client:

Program Setup

1. Open the Chromeleon Client.

2. Use the Program Wizard to create a program for your timebase. For details, see The Program Wizard.

3. After completing the wizard, the Commands view opens in the Program (see  The Commands View). Comment out or delete the Inject command. See below:

Note:

Due to the missing Inject command warnings might occur. However, when you submit a sequence using this program, things should run as expected without any warnings.
