The service register describes the current status of
maintenance alert notification records that are associated
with the instrument. The software maintains a schedule of
required service activities in the service register.
Maintenance activities that are scheduled for future dates are
displayed as green records. When a scheduled maintenance
activity is due, the record is displayed in red, and a service
alert notification is generated.

notifications, the icon in the toolbar is marked with a red
exclamation mark.
Service alert notifications can be acknowledged by an
operator, using the “Service Register” dialog box.
To view the “Service Register” dialog box:
1. Select “Options/Robot Setup/Service register”.
