troubleshooting and Errors
The STP420 is equipped with a state-of-the art troubleshooting system.
It constantly monitors all the important parameters and functions
during processing, and gives you information about the instrument's
status.
If an error is detected, detailed error messages and appropriate user
instructions are displayed on the touch screen.
Details of all events are recorded in the 'logfile'. You can access the
logfile by touching Diagnosis on the Standby screen.
•
Status messages: These give you information on system readiness
(for example, the temperature of the paraffin reservoir) and the
progress and status of the protocols currently in use.
•
Maintenance messages: These provide information about routine
maintenance (for example, station cleaning, chamber cleaning,
reagent expiration, and so on).
•
Error messages: These alert you to various types of system
malfunctions (for example, rotation errors, block of the reagent
system, leaks, pressure and vacuum errors, power outage, and so on).
If, during operation, an error message appears on the screen you must
immediately confirm it and respond with appropriate measures.
