Cary 50 Spectrophotometer Hardware Manual

Double-click the failed event to determine the cause of the failed
device. If it was the Cary 50 that failed to load, you will see the
following description:
‘The FCary service failed to start due to the following error:
The device is not ready.’
This generally means that the device driver loaded but there was no
response from the Cary 50 instrument. This indicates that the Cary
50 interface hardware is not responding.
4
Ensure that the Cary 50 card is correctly installed and that the
interconnecting cable is secure.
Solution 2
Another cause of this error may be due to a conflict between the Cary
50 driver and another driver on the system. The most common cause
is a sound card for which a driver has not been installed. The
computer may have a sound card built into the motherboard as well
as a separate sound card that the computer recognizes, but for which
it does not have a driver installed.
