Gas chromatograph with ease of error identification
A gas chromatograph includes a display unit, indicators, and a display control unit. The gas chromatograph is provided with a plurality of units having the same function, and the indicators are each associated with any of the plurality of units. When the error has occurred in any of the plurality of units in the gas chromatograph, processing of the display control unit displays an error notification screen on a display screen of a display unit, and in addition, operates an indicator associated with the unit in which the error has occurred. Therefore, a user can recognize in which of the plurality of units the error has occurred.
1. A gas chromatograph capable of making an analysis using a plurality of units having a same function, the gas chromatograph comprising:
a body in which the plurality of units is provided;
a display unit that performs an error display on a display screen when an error has been detected, the display unit being provided on the body;
a plurality of indicators provided separately from the display unit and individually associated with the plurality of units; and
a control unit electronically connected to the plurality of units and the display unit, the control unit comprising a central processing unit (CPU), the CPU configured to execute a program whereby the control unit functions as an error detection unit that detects an occurrence of the error in the plurality of units and a display control unit that controls display by each of the display unit and the plurality of indicators,
wherein, when the error has been detected by the error detection unit, the display control unit operates the indicator corresponding to the unit from which the error has been detected; and
wherein the error display performed by the display unit includes an information for identifying the unit in which the error has occurred.
2. The gas chromatograph according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of units have a same shape.
3. The gas chromatograph according to claim 1 , wherein, when the error has been detected by the error detection unit, the display control unit causes the display screen to display how to handle the error.
4. The gas chromatograph according to claim 1 , wherein the indicators are provided individually on the units with which the indicators are associated.
