Fault

description

Possible cause

Solution

Temporary

Long-term

The drain

pipe is

continuously

reporting

alarms about

blocking.

The drain pipe

does not

discharge water

smoothly.

Inspect that the entire pipeline of

the drain pipe is not warped and

outlet end is lower than the

water-discharge port of the

apparatus. If the drain pipe

discharges smooth flow water but

continues to report alarms, Log in

to the system with the

administrator user account and

enter the interface of “menu -

setting - parameter setting”.

Disable the water tank liquid level

detection functions.

Immediately contact

Dakewe for

technical support.

The hanger

of the

mechanical

arm jams the

tank.

The reagent

tank is not

opened, and

some slide

stands are not

taken out from

the reagent tank.

Open the reagent tank cover or

take out the slide stands inside the

station that experiences the tank

jamming situation. Inspect whether

the slide stands are damaged and

unhooked. Click the button

“Reduce Mechanical Arm” on this

display screen after confirmation

that there is no error. The system

continues to handle the current

staining program after the

mechanical arm’s automatic reset

is successful. If multiple attempts

of reset fail, shut down the device

and manually complete the

unfinished steps.

Immediately contact

Dakewe for

technical support.

Suspension

during the

execution of

staining

program

The protective

cover is opened

or a system fault

occurs during

the staining.

Close the protective cover.

Immediately contact

Dakewe for

technical support.
