Observed Problems
LH Result Error Code observed when result is less than the highest calibrator
Probable Cause(s)
Corrective Action(s)
Linear Range-H field not edited to
high calibrator concentration.
Edit the Linear Range-H field to the high
calibrator concentration (as stated in the
calibrator value sheet).
Poor precision or erroneous results
Probable Cause(s)
Corrective Action(s)
Issues with the source lamp.
Check the lamp:
• Normal lamp function: flat line between
reads 2 and 16, and a smooth line bending
from vertical to horizontal between reads 17
and 33.
• Lamp degeneration: progress curve not
smooth (exhibits an erratic sawtooth
appearance).
R2 reagent arm is out of alignment.
Adjust the R2 reagent arm. Refer to
Reagent
Arm Adjustment
in the Hardware
section of
this guide.
R2 reagent is not dispensed correctly. • Check R2 dispense components (sample or
reagent probe, syringes, wash, mixer,
tubing).
• Check the reagent cartridge for bubbles or
foam. If present, remove with an applicator
stick; use a new applicator stick for each
cartridge.
• Check reagent adapters to verify they are
seated properly.
Reagent container bar code label not read
Probable Cause(s)
Corrective Action(s)
Bar code label not positioned
correctly.
Check positioning of the R1 and R2 reagent
bottles; verify the bar code label is facing the
center of the carousel.
