Setpoint High Error:

 The setpoint value read from the temperature controller’s was higher 

than expected.

203

Setpoint Calculated Low Error:

 The calculated temperature setpoint is less than the 

acceptable minimum. This could be caused by lab environmental temperature. Let the system 
stabilize for one hour, turn the instrument off then on.

204

Setpoint Calculated High Error: 

The calculated temperature setpoint is higher than the
