GC connected via USB interface

Post by abbidmajid »

Hello, The GC (Agilent 6890) is connected via a USB interface (digital collection). This was working fine, until there was a virus on the system. Not sure how to resolve the issue.The clarity is also linked to a agilent 1100 via ethernet, which works fine.

thanks

Hello Abbid,

It is possible that some system or Clarity files were damaged by this virus. In this case we can recommend you to:

- At first make backup of all your chromatographic data, preferentially to a external disc
- Try to clean up your computer by using some antivirus software (for example http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html)
in case this will not help:
- Reinstall Clarity software (for new installation use latest version (2.8.1.584) available at http://www.dataapex.com)
in case this will not help:
- Reinstall operational system (Windows) on your computer (following manufacturers instructions), then reinstall Clarity software.

Also please send us following files to clarity@dataapex.com (just for the case it will not help):
c:\clarity\clarity.cfg
c:\clarity\clarity.dsk
c:\clarity\systeminfo.txt
c:\clarity\badtrace.txt and all *.dmp files (may not be present, they are created during some problems only)
c:\clarity\log\ *.audit for the days the problem appeared

Best Regards,
Jiří Kuntoš
