Missing Vial
Error ID: 4019, 4034, 4541, 4706
No vial was found in the position defined in the method or sequence.
When the gripper arm picks a vial out of the sample tray, the processor
monitors the gripper motor encoder. If a vial is present, the closing of the
gripper fingers is limited by the vial. However, if no vial is present, the gripper
fingers close too far. This is sensed by the processor (encoder position),
causing the error message to be generated.
