I'm not surprised to see a massive drift. The maximum temperature on the optical unit of the RID is 55 degrees Celsius. Usually the TCC/MCT needs to be at the very same temperature. 
 
 Please check chapter 5 "Optimizing the Refractive Index Detector" of the G1362A user manual. 
 
 With RIDs, you always need to be patient. Equilibration easily takes an hour or two. For OQ/PV, we even equilibrate overnight.
