Any body knows why the intensity test on UV detector felt. I have changed the cell and the lampe ( the new one).

Go to Diagnostics on the software, there is a self-test.

Also, check the basics.
Perform the cell test ( which will tell you if it's the cell ) - ensure you have standard cells, the low volume cells will fail, as may an empty cell - cell needs to be filled with water. If the failure is at low wavelength - 190, could be lamp. Newone may not have warmed up fully - give then at least 30 minutes
