We recently purchased a new GC that has the ability for sleep mode. None of us here are experts on "putting the GC to sleep". We recently ran out of air (no big deal) since the last person in on Friday (shared equipment) didn't turn the flame off. Here were the options we were toying with:
Create a sleep method to turn off the flame and stop the flow of all gases (sleep method Friday eve, wake mode Monday a.m.)
Turn off the flame and let one of the gases flow over the column (sleep method Friday eve, wake mode Monday a.m.)
Put a standby method at the end of each persons run that shuts off the flame (wear and tear on the ignitor?)
Other thoughts?
