not ready state of MS TOF

Good evening. We have liquid chromatograph Agilent 1200 with time-of-flight mass spectrometric detector 6210 (Agilent Technologies, USA). After opening Data Acquisition Instrument Status of MS TOF is yellow for a long time and can't achieve ready state. The same for trying to do Tune. But when i want to start interactive sample it is green. I'll be glad to have some help with this question.

  • The screen capture that you attached shows that the source set-points are:

    Dry gas temp-325

    Dry gas flow-5

    Nebulizer pressure-30

    But the actuals are:

    Dry gas temp-300

    Dry gas flow-6.9

    Nebulizer pressure-20

    How long have you waited for it to equilibrate?  I suspect that it works when you run an interactive sample because of a check box, "Don't wait for temperatures..."
