Installation
This section explains how to install the G1978B multimode source on a 6100
Series Single Quad LC/MS instrument. The G1978A multimode source is not
supported on these instruments.
The 6100 Series Single Quad LC/MS with multimode source is supported on
ChemStation B.03.01 or higher, or the ChemStation B.01.03 with a patch.
Step 1. Prepare to install
The Multimode Enablement Kit, G1978-60451, is shipped with the multimode
source. This kit needs to be installed before the multimode source is used.
Note that the multimode source and its accessories are to be installed by an
Agilent Customer Engineer.
1Check that the Multimode Enablement Kit contains the following parts:
•Multimode Bd HV cable, p/n G1960-60858
•Multimode HV PCA, p/n G1960-61015
•Multimode Bd Power/Data Cable, p/n G1960-60873
Figure 1 From left to right: G1960-60858, G1960-61015 and G1960-60873
2Install the APCI Enablement Kit, G1947-60451, which is shipped with the
multimode source.
The APCI Enablement kit contains the following parts:
•Fast APCI HV Supply, p/n G1946-80058

Step 2. Install the HV control PCA and cables
•Valve BD-APCI supply, p/nG1960-60802
•Valve BD-APCI Needle Interlock, p/n G1960-60856
Figure 2 From left to right: G1946-80058, G1960-60802 and G1960-60856
Step 2. Install the HV control PCA and cables
1Turn off the system power and remove the system power cord.
Keep the power cord intact if the vacuum control switch box is used. The
switch box is intended to keep the vacuum on while a CE works on the
electronics. The switch box is for CE use only.
2Remove the CDS cover, top, side, front, and the Aux Module cover.
3Disconnect the ribbon cable that connects the valve PCA to the
Vcap/Vchamber power supply. Then disconnect the Vcap and Vchamber
cable from the power supply.
Figure 3 Disconnecting the Vcap/Vchamber power supply from the valve PCA (left) and the Vcap/Vchamber.
4Place the multimode HV power supply PCA in the slot between the valve
PCA and the Vcap/Vchamber. Secure the board by pressing it down into its
slot and then attach it with two screws.
5Connect the short gray cable from valve PCA to the multimode HV power
supply.
