Trouble Shooting
The Model 12V500 provides internal diagnostics that monitor proper simula-
tor operation. If a monitored system detects a condition that is outside of the
normal operation parameters, the simulator will deactivate the solution and head
space heaters as well as the agitator motor. The simulator will emit an audible
alarm and display the detected condition code number on the LCD followed by a
message and icon detailing the condition. The LCD will alternate displaying the
status code and message until the condition is corrected or the simulator is reset.
The audible alarm will stop after 1 minute.
Resetting The Simulator
Turning the power off and on will reset the simulator.
