Shimadzu GC-2010 configuration lost when changing battery
The GC displayed an error of battery low. Then I have stopped the equipment and restart it again, and the language is now in japanese. We have changed the battery now but need to restore the equipment to the normal operation settings first of all return the equipment to english language. Please help me with this.
Thank you,
Adolfo

Hello Dan,
Thank you for your answer. The problem is that the equipment is now displaying only in japanese and I am not able to see the menus in english. I will send you the photos of this problem, but when I am in the lab.

Hello Dan,
The configuration of the GC was lost, so I am working to reconfigure it. My GC has three detectors: FID, ECD and FPD and two Split/splitless injectors. But now when I check the INJ button for injectors the display shows : Inj port is not installed and for detectors the same, when I press DET it says Detector is not installed.
I went then FUNC pressed 7 Service/Maintenance and then went to 1 Installation (Position)
Then I have configured the position of Injectors and detectors:
Port Type Position
INJ1 SPL 6
INJ2 SPL 7
DET1 FID 1
DET2 ECD 2
AUX3 FPD 4
AUX4 ------- ---------
AUX5 -------- ---------
I have selected the position according to a table in the GC manual.
I have checked in the manual of the GC but I cannot find the proper explanation.
I don't know how to configure this detectors and injectors., can you help me with this?
Thank you,
Adolfo

Have you configured the analyical lines on the system. The detectors and inlets will not be active until they are installed and configured as part of an analytical line.

Hello Dan, I don´t know what is an Analytical line. I have an operation manual but I don't find or I don't understand what is an analytical line. Can you help me with this?
