Infinity Diode Array Detector Manual

 and the software manuals.

Installing the Agilent Lab Advisor Software

For details of installation procedures for the Agilent Lab Advisor software, 
refer to the software documentation on the Lab Advisor DVD.

Agilent Lab Advisor replaces and extends upon the diagnostic functions that 
were formerly only in the ChemStation software.

Agilent Lab Advisor is a Windows®-based application that continuously 
monitors instruments in the lab in real time and increases productivity 
through automatic notification of maintenance and service needs with the use 
of advanced counters. This allows a problem to be fixed before it impacts 
results. The software includes an extensive suite of user information and 
documentation, a set of calculators and tools to help set up, calibrate, and 
maintain your instrument, and tests and diagnostic routines to verify proper 
performance. Agilent Lab Advisor also provides feedback and solutions for 
any instrument errors that may arise. The software will work with or without 
Agilent data systems.

The software monitors:

•

LC module status

•

Early Maintenance Feedback (to determine the need for upgrade or 
replacement)

In addition, the software:

•

Automates useful tests,

•

Attempts to identify supported LAN-based instruments that are powered 
on and connected to your PC or lab’s network,

•

Automatically suggests replacements parts and troubleshooting tasks for 
some common instrument problems.
