Appendix B: Error Codes
General Errors, Cont’d
Code Cause
3000
MAGNET_POSITION_ERR
Magna models only: Requested offset position
is not valid - the request is to move the magnet
to a position greater than allowed; 0 offset only.
Probable Causes:
• Offset entered other than 0.
3100
SOAK_SHAKE_ERR
Error running shake/soak protocol – one of
several potential errors that can occur during a
shake or soak operation. A 3100 error is
unlikely to occur. An axis or sensor error is
more likely to appear before a 3100 error.
For example, whenever a motor-related error
occurs during activities in the shake/soak cycle,
such as moving the manifold, magnet, carrier,
and carrier Y motors, or turning the vacuum on
and off, the axis or sensor errors would be
displayed first before a 3100 error.
Probable Causes:
• One of the axes failed.
• Vacuum switch did not close before
vacuum delay expired.
3200
SERIAL_PORT_ERR
Error running serial port test on test station.
(EPROM test station error only.)
3300
KEYBOARD_ERR
Error running keyboard test on test station.
(EPROM test station error only.)
3400
IO_TEST_ERR
I/O test error – occurs when one part of the I/O
test on the test station has failed. (EPROM test
station error only.)
3500
DC_PUMP_ERR
DC pump test error on the test station. (EPROM
test station error only.)
3700
AUTCLN_NUM_LOOPS_INVALID_ERR
Invalid number of loops selected for the
AUTOCLEAN
program. This usually occurs when
trying to start the AUTOCLEAN feature from a
PC, and the parameters downloaded include an
out-of-range loop count.
