provide an error code if a problem is detected.

l
In Gen5, select System > Instrument Control > Synergy H1 .

Click the Pre-Heating tab. Enter a Requested temperature of at least 37°C and
then click On .
Wait until the incubator temperature reaches the set point before continuing.
2. Select System > Diagnostics > Run System Test . Select your reader if
prompted and click OK .
3. When the test is complete, a dialog requesting additional information appears. Enter
the information and click OK .
If a message appears stating that the reader has a pending system test report,
view the report and then repeat steps 2 and 3.
4. The results report appears and should contain the text “SYSTEM TEST PASS”.
l
If required, print the report and store it with your installation records. Note: Gen5
stores results in its database; you can print a report at any time.
If an error code is returned, refer to Error Codes starting on page 145 . If the
problem is something you can fix, do so now and run another System Test. If
the problem is something you cannot fix, or if the test continues to fail, contact
