Hello!

I would like to install a new lamp which doesn't have a tag on it for Agilent 1260 infinity DAD. From the controller the DAD has following settings:

1)use lamp tag settings(instrument gives an error that the tag is missing and won't start with a new lamp that doesn't have a tag)
2)5190-0917 with cont. heating
3)5190-0917 w/o cont. heating

I'm not sure how to choose between option 2) and 3). What does this cont. heating do and shoud I use it or not.

Try using LabAdvisor to see if it is possible to toggle Lamp Tag required off. On some units this is possible.

As far as i remember only one mode will make a lamp ignitable. Another one will cause an error.

Hello

You can use lamp without tag. You just need to disable "tag"-recognizing lamp type in DAD config.
