After entering it press the “OK” button. If you have entered an incorrect service code the instrument will allow you to re-enter the code. 6. After successfully entering the service code the instrument will show the service menu. Yumizen G400 - Service menu...
Place the vessel into the reagent incubation position ■ Switch on continuous mixing using the mixer button ■ Check that the mixing magnet starts to rotate and whether mixing stops when the button is pressed again. Yumizen G400 - Service menu...

Password: You can change the default password of the instrument. DDimer: After inserting a pendrive containing the appropriate authorisation file using this button the authorisation of DDIMER measurement can be switched on and off. Yumizen G400 - Service menu...
Measure the voltage on display connector (J8). The measured value should be above 9V. If the voltage is correct use a reference display and if this operates properly the problem is caused by the display assembly. Yumizen G400 - Display...
Pin 15 (Chip Select) must be on ground potential and the voltage must be fallen to ground potential when the screen is touched. You need to check whether there is digital communication at position IC 12 when the screen is touched. Yumizen G400 - Touch screen...
There should be 9 V at pin 1 and 4 of the U4 IC which controls the burning. You should be able to measure 9 volts at pin 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the U4 IC Yumizen G400 - Printing...

If the measured voltage is different then check if the control signal appears at the base of the T1 transistor. If the printer complies with all these measurements but it still does not print, check the instrument with a reference printer. Yumizen G400 - Printing...
32.7 kHz at pin 7 of the U3 IC. Set the current time, save it and switch the instrument off and on again. Wait for 1-2 minutes and check that the time displayed by the instrument is the same as the real time. Yumizen G400 - Date/Time...
It is worthwhile doing a software update on the instrument, and then checking if the instrument is working properly before replacing the EEPROM-s. If the EEPROM-s are replaced you will have to press the “Setup defaults” button in the SERVICE menu. Yumizen G400 - Measurement result, calibrations...
If there are no square wave signals check that the control is arriving at the U19 input. If there is control at pin 2, 6, 13 and 9, and there are no breaks in the coils then the U19 controller is defective. Yumizen G400 - Mixer...
. You can measure the output voltage at pin 1 of the U20 circuit. If the measured value is not appropriate on the basis of these parameters then there may be a software fault. Yumizen G400 - Temperature measurement...
T8 and T9 check the power supply of the transistors as well. Only one side of the incubator block is being heated Perform the measurements described in the The incubator block is not getting warm chapter on the colder side of the incubator block. Yumizen G400 - Incubator heating...
It is not possible to update the software Check that the name of the file copied onto the pendrive is coag.ahx. How to update the software: Yumizen G400 - Controller, Program...

Place the pendrive containing the new software into the instrument ■ Switch on the instrument and allow the update ■ After the update has been completed the instrument will restart automatically ■ After this remove the pendrive Yumizen G400 - Controller, Program...
On pin 1 of the connector 3.3. V you should be able to measure while pin 5 is at ground potential. Measure pins 1 and 7 Yumizen G400 - Measuring head, measurement results...

Finally check the change of voltage on pin 1 of the U304, U305, U306, U307 ICs, and measure the power supply on the ICs, on pin 8 you should measure 3.3 V, and on pin 4 you should measure ground potential. Yumizen G400 - Measuring head, measurement results...
The receiver should support zero modem connection. The serial cable used for communication must be in faultless condition. Check the settings needed for communication. The settings of Yumizen G400 and the receiver must be identical. The Yumizen G400 RS-232 settings are as below: Serial line basic values...
■ Restart the PC operation system, then switch on the Yumizen G400 and connect it to the PC. If the PC still does not recognise the Yumizen G400, check the PC operation system, whether it supports USB connection. If there is still no connection, check the Yumizen G400 as described in the The instrument does not detect the pendrive chapter.
PCB. You must measure voltage on pins 15, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the U17 IC, if no signal is measured on these pins, then the U17 IC has probably failed. Yumizen G400 - Measurement position signal...
