''The PowerChrom System can record and analyse data from the Hewlett-Packard 5890 GC instrument.''

== Introduction ==
The HP5890 Gas Chromatography (GC) instrument can be connected to either a PowerChrom or e-corder unit. The PowerChrom software is then used to record and analyse the data. This can be used to upgrade a GC which is connected to an integrator.

== Equipment Required ==
The following equipment is required to upgrade the HP5890:
* ER280 PowerChrom System
* Signal and trigger cables (shown in Figure 2)

== Installation ==
# Remove the panel on the top surface of the GC, on the right hand side. You will find three twelve-pin connectors labelled Signal 1, Signal 2 and Remote.
# Connect the cables between the GC and the PowerChrom unit, connecting both the signal and trigger cables, as shown in Figure 3a and 3b.
# Turn on the GC and PowerChrom/e-corder unit, and open the PowerChrom software.
# In the PowerChrom software, set the Inject Settings to “Wait for Inject” and the Hardware Settings, Channel 1 Range to “1V “.
# You can test the system by either injecting a sample or by using the GC’s test signal. The test signal, consisting of three peaks, is started by typing the following key sequence into the GC’s front panel: “SIG 1”, “9” and “ENTER”. Pressing the “Start” key will then trigger the PowerChrom software to begin recording.
