Troubleshooting Guide
Note Do not use the instrument if it appears that it does not
function properly.
Note that the instrument does not verify the logic flow of the received
commands.
When an error is detected, the current operation is terminated. After an
error, it is best to abort the current run and restart from the beginning after
the problem is fixed.
If the computer cannot communicate with the instrument, check that the
serial connector or USB cable is securely connected to the computer and
instrument and that the instrument is defined in the database (see
Communicating with instruments" on page 34).
You can also try switching the instrument OFF and ON again.
The run log shows the error and warning messages that occur during the
run. For their explanations, see:
