Hello Folks,
A colleague has a problem with an Agilent 600 console.
I'll copy his notes below. Any help will be appreciated.

The first hint of a possible problem came yesterday morning with the spectrometer being unresponsive accompanied by an "ACode Error." An RF card-cage reset, via its Master Board, appeared to solve that problem, and the instrument worked fine through late this afternoon. However, when I tried to begin with the next sample, I noticed that a "Set Up Parameters" command ("su") failed, and the system went into an "Inactive" mode. Master Board resets appeared to briefly return the system to "Idle," but it would suddenly turn back to "Inactive" without issuing any other commands. I then notice that the scrolling LED's displays on the RF boards were no longer showing their regular displays, and they eventually failed to give any "patterns" together. The card cage's power supply was indicating that all its DC Voltages were present with green panel lights, but I wasn't able to check test points with a multimeter. As I mentioned above, none of the other obvious power-cycles proved useful.
