Code
Probe Changer failed position verify
0407
Probable Causes:
• The optical trigger flag has moved or is loose.
• The probe changer assembly is not allowed to move due to a foreign object preventing its
movement.
0408 Syringe 0 failed position verify (also known as the first syringe drive)
Probable Causes:
• The optical trigger flag has moved, is loose, or has intermittently failed.
• For certain older dispensers, opto cable 7330506 may need to be replaced with 7120734.
• The linear way and bearings are dirty or lack sufficient grease.
• The lead screw is loose on the motor shaft because the glue is no longer bonding it to the
motor shaft.
• The assembly is not able to move because a foreign object is preventing the movement.
Syringe 1 failed position verify (also known as the second syringe drive)
0409
Probable Causes:
• The optical trigger flag has moved, is loose, or has intermittently failed.
• For certain older dispensers, opto cable 7330506 may need to be replaced with 7120734.
• The linear way and bearings are dirty or lack sufficient grease.
• The lead screw is loose on the motor shaft because the glue is no longer bonding it to the
motor shaft.
• The assembly is not able to move because a foreign object is preventing the movement.

Saturation Errors (0500-0616)

These errors occur in several places when the measurement channel in use is found
to be in an unexpected saturation condition. The error decoding is complex and
requires some orientation in terms of where the failure occurs. The correct
identification will depend on listening to the unit function prior to the reported
error. For example, if the monochromator motor were in motion during a self-
check, a 0500 error would indicate an ABS measurement channel error. A 0501
error would represent an absorbance reference channel. If the fluorometric
measurement system is in use (filter wheels homing), a 0500 error could indicate a
missing filter. In this case, a 0501 would indicate a missing filter in position 1 of the
wheel, which was last homing prior to the error condition being detected.
