Section 5
RECOVERY PROCESS
Overview
This section describes the recovery process for any
operation that is suspended due to an error condition. If an
error occurs during processing, the UTILITIES SCREEN
provides a means of initiating the recovery procedure
detailed in this section. In addition, it enables the operator
to abort and restart any baskets that may have been
suspended in Retorts 3 or 4. See “
Section 8, Trouble-
shooting ” for specific troubleshooting procedures for a
given error.
It is important to note that not all conditions causing an
error are immediately recoverable. Some error conditions
require a service technician to diagnose the problem and
may require service attention. In this case, please contact
the Sakura Technical Support Department at 800-725-
8723, option 2, (U.S. customers only), or the nearest
authorized Sakura instrument distributor or representative.
Detecting an Error Condition
When the instrument has detected an error during
processing, a message window displays automatically.
Write this message down . Then note the time left for the
basket(s) in Retorts 3 and/or 4 for reference during
recovery process setup. The window presents two options
from which to choose,
RESUME or ABORT (Figure 5-A).

•
If the RESUME button is pressed, and the error
is a condition from which the instrument can im-
mediately recover, the error is cleared and the
Xpress x120 process resumes where it left off.
NOTE: If the error that occurred is such that it pre-
vents the system from resuming processing, it may be
necessary to shutdown the instrument and provide
service attention.
•
If the
ABORT button is pressed, a confirmation
screen displays (Figure 5-B). Press the YES but-
ton to continue with the abort process; press the
NO button to cancel the abort.

•
If the NO button is pressed, the system returns to
the prior display (Figure 5-A).
