Rack signal light is orange, the instrument is busy with another process. If manual input is used after
tubing placement errors, a general robot reset could solve internal errors and manual sampling could
be started.
Samples with aspiration/barcode read errors will be returned to the track system without further processing
11.10 - Robot arm error - general procedure
In case of sample tube placement errors or lost tubes:
At first the Interrliner starts an initial check on all positions.
▪
In case of an error without lost tubes: Press Sampling in Sample mode after the initialization process is
finished.
▪
In case of an error with lost tubes: Place this tube in the buffer position and press sampling in Sample
mode after the initialization process is finished.
Aspirated tubes will be returned to the track, not aspirated sample tubes will be processed after initial check.
Do not remove tubes from the gripper or other positions. Samples are routed with use of the track system
and Laboratory Information System and information can be lost if tubes are not at the expected location.
If the normal initialization process does not solve errors, the system needs a reset. This could be done in
service mode or with the reset button in the cabinet. If the problem persists contact technician.
11.11 - Air bubbles
After a normal aspiration, the Westergren pipette must be free of air bubbles. In the following examples
different patterns of air bubbles which can appear in the pipettes are shown. Air bubbles can affect the
sedimentation and are mostly reported as errors and no ESR result is reported.
Usually bubbles are caused by a leakage at the bottom of the pipette. If air bubbles are visible in the pipette,
check the following :
