Error Messages
Each error message has a number; only this number is reported via the remote control interfaces.
Error message numbers are not displayed but are placed in the Execution Error Register where
they can be read via the remote interfaces, see Status Reporting section.
Maintenance
The Manufacturers or their agents overseas will provide repair for any unit developing a fault.
Where owner wish to undertake their own maintenance work, this should only be done by skilled
personnel in conjunction with the service manual which may be purchased directly from the
Manufacturers or their agents overseas.
Fuse
The correct fuse type is:
10 Amp 250V HBC time-lag (T), 5 x 20mm
Make sure that only fuses of the required rated current and specified type are used for
replacement. The use of makeshift fuses and the short-circuiting of fuse-holders is prohibited.
To replace the fuse, first disconnect the instrument from the AC supply. Remove the 6 cover
securing screws and lift off the cover. Replace the fuse with one of the correct type and refit the
cover.
Note that the main function of the fuse is to make the instrument safe and limit damage in the
event of failure of one of the switching devices. If a fuse fails it is therefore very likely that the
replacement will also blow, because the supply has developed a fault; in such circumstances the
instrument will need to be returned to the manufacturer for service.
Cleaning
If the instrument requires cleaning use a cloth that is only lightly dampened with water or a mild
detergent.
WARNING! TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR DAMAGE TO THE INSTRUMENT, NEVER
ALLOW WATER TO GET INSIDE THE CASE. TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE CASE NEVER
CLEAN WITH SOLVENTS.
