Probe Holders
Clean the gel wells with warm water and a damp cloth to remove all traces of gel.
3
Control Panel
Physically inspect the control panel for missing or damaged items. Verify the proper
illumination of all the control panel buttons.
4
Probes
Check all probes for wear and tear on the lens, cable, and connector. Look for bent
or damaged pins on the connector and in the connector socket on the unit. Verify
that the EMI fingers around the probe connector socket housing are intact. Check
the probe locking mechanism and probe switch.

Verify that the FE crate cooling fans, BE fan and peripheral fans are operating and
clean.

BE Rear Panel
Check the BE rear panel connectors for bent pins, loose connections and loose or
missing hardware. Screw all the cable connectors tightly to the connector sockets
on the panel. Verify that the labeling is in good condition.
8
Covers
Check that all screws are in place, all chassis and internal covers are installed and
that the air filters are in place.
