Wavelength Calibration test aborted by system - HPLC 1100 DAD detector

I have just replaced both the tungsten and deuterium lamps in the DAD of my 1100 HPLC and when I attempt to run the wavelength calibration test in lab advisor, it won't complete the test and the status is aborted by system. The lamps have been on for the required time and the flow cell is removed during the test.

There is no further information about why the test is aborting - does anyone have any further insight

  • Is the model of your DAD a G1365A or G1365B? If so, you can try the intensity test without the flow cell. If you need the flow cell, make sure you have fresh new Water in the flow cell (flush system with water).

    From what I can read so far, I would probably remove the column and put a union instead and see if you run a blank if you get those peaks again. To rule out Column.
