Error Messages
The photometer will display an error message in the unlikely event of malfunction. These error messages are mainly designed to assist service staff in
diagnosing instrument faults. In the event of an error message appearing on the photometer display, contact BAMO Mesures SAS.
Error messages are coded 7, 8 and 9 and all relate to blanking the instrument. In the first instance, the user should check the operating technique and
sample clarity. If these are in order, then these errors indicate a fault in the optics:
Error 7
indicates too much light – remove the instrument from bright light.
Error 8
indicates a fault with one of the optics components, and requires service assistance.
Error 9
indicates not enough light – follow ‘Cleaning the Optics’ routine.
