A6 Errors 
An A6 error occurs when the microswitch does not turn on when the solenoid is energized, or when the 
microswitch does not turn off when the rotary solenoid is deenergized.  An A6 error may be resolved by turning the 

IRRADIATOR

 off and then on.  This error may also be resolved by removing any jammed dosimeters or a jammed 

magazine.  The jamming may have occurred because of improper loading of a dosimeter in the magazine.      
This error may also be caused by failure of the solenoid or microswitch, in which case the solenoid or microswitch 
should be replaced.  
 
A7 Errors 
This type of error occurs when the door switch is turned off while the power switch is turned on or while the loader 
is operating.  The two probable causes of this error are the door being opened during operating or the failure of the 
door switch.  Closing the door or replacing the door switch should eliminate the problem. 
 
B-Type Error General Troubleshooting 
For each of the B-type errors, there are several suggestions for troubleshooting the problem.  First, check the 
badge that caused the error for any substance which may have caused it to stick.  Second, verify that the badge 
was properly loaded into the magazine.  Third, remove any obstacle which may be preventing operation to 
continue.  Fourth, perform a loader and changer reader check.  Fifth, adjust or replace any faulty parts. 
 
B0 Errors 
This error occurs as the badge is being raised out of the magazine and the upper sensor does not detect a signal 
within the specified time limit, even though the specified number of pulses were transferred to the pulse motor for 
badge insertion into the number code reader housing.  The probable causes of this error are something blocking 
the path of the badge, the magazine positioning is incorrect, failure of the pulse motor or sensor, or failure of the 
mechanism controller.  This error may be corrected by following the troubleshooting suggestions given in B-Type 
Error General Trouble shooting section. 
 
B1 Errors 
A B1 error occurs as the badge is being lowered into the magazine after it is read and the lower sensor does not 
detect a signal within the specified time limit, even though the specified number of reverse pulses were transferred 
to the pulse motor for badge insertion.  This error occurs after a badge has been read and the badge data have 
been transmitted to a connected computer and/or printer.  The probable causes of this error are blockage of the 
path of the push-up road, failure of the pulse motor, failure of the sensor, or failure of the mechanism controller.  
This error may be corrected by following the troubleshooting suggestions given in B-Type Error General Trouble 
shooting section. 
 
B2 Errors 
After a badge has been read and it is being lowered into the magazine, a B2 error occurs if the badge sensor does 
not detect a signal within the specified time limit, even though the lower sensor detects that the push-up road is in 
its down position.  Since the badge had been read and was being returned to the magazine, the data from the 
badge were transmitted to a connected computer and /or printer.  This error is usually caused by something
