Hello, I don't have a root cause for you, but we see a similar issue on one particular 7900 where the res-axis auto-tune consistently mal-adjusts. We are using a manual axis offset adjustment as a workaround: In this case your low mass needs +0.05 AMU…

Is your tune solution still OK? Maybe the probe is partially blocked? is the amount of mist in the quartz tube (connected to the torch) still the same as always?
Hello,
You could save the result set method as a new name, change it to external standard, and then reprocess just the standards and samples without the IS. I guess my concern is when using an IS in your samples, how it can be missing, that would…
HI Lars,
Yes, you can run the test on a VI. Specific to your system, a failing result could indicate a leak within the inlet or at any of the in-line connections of your GSV, so the results may not be clear without a point leak detector. I would also…
Hi Abdul,
From the picture, it appears your FID flame was extinguished. You can put a metal wrench or a mirror at the top of the detector to see if the exhaust contains moisture from the combustion, but a flat baseline at zero output usually means the…
