Chapter 8: Troubleshooting

Explanation: The Analyzer’s firmware has been updated, but the language packs have not been updated. Locate 
the USB flash memory drive that contained the firmware update, turn off the Analyzer, and insert the USB drive 
into the Analyzer’s USB port. When you turn on the Analyzer, it will offer you the opportunity to update the 
language pack. If this error persists after updating the language pack, contact technical support; you may need 
a newer version of the language pack.

60 - TOC Zero Error

Message: “Negative TOC readings occurred after two TOC Autozeros.”
Explanation: When 

Neg TOC

 is set to 

On

 under 

Program Autozero

,  the Analyzer automatically initiates a TOC 

Autozero when two consecutive negative measurements occur. If negative readings occur after a second TOC 
Autozero, this warning is issued, and the Analyzer will abort analysis. Consult troubleshooting techniques under 
“Step 3: Review Solutions for Basic Problems” on page 159, and contact GE Analytical Instruments Technical 
Support if negative readings persist.

61 - iOS Comm Error

Message: “Unable to communicate with 

iOS

. Please refer to the Oper. and Maint. manual for info.”

Explanation: The Analyzer is not able to establish communication with the 

iOS

 System, due to a hardware issue. 

Contact GE Analytical Instruments Technical Support.

62 - iOS Comm Error

Message: “Unable to communicate with 

iOS

. Please refer to the Oper. and Maint. manual for info.”

Explanation: The Analyzer is not able to establish communication with the 

iOS

 System, due to a hardware issue. 

Contact GE Analytical Instruments Technical Support.

65 - Main Board Error

Message: “An error has been detected on the Main Board. Please refer to the 500 Oper. and Maint. Manual. 
Contact GE if problem persists.”
Explanation: A communication error with the main (System) board has occurred. Turn the Analyzer off and on 
and restart analysis. If the error persists, contact Technical Support.

66 - Analog Error

Message: “An error has been detected on the analog board. Please refer to the 500 Oper. and Maint. Manual. 
Contact GE if problem persists.”
Explanation: A communication error with the analog board has occurred. Turn the Analyzer off and on and 
restart analysis. If the error persists, contact Technical Support.

67 - Internal Error 

Message: “An internal error has been detected. Please contact GE.”
Explanation: This error displays when a software error occurs in the Analyzer. Contact Technical Support.

69 - Analog Board Error

Message: “incorrect analog board detected. Please contact GE.”
Explanation: This error displays after maintenance has been performed on the Analyzer’s analog board, possibly 
during an upgrade procedure. Contact Technical Support.

70 - Super iOS Error

Message: “Incorrect firmware detected in Super iOS. Please contact GE.”
Explanation: The firmware in the Super iOS is not the correct version for use with this Analyzer. Contact Technical 
Support.
