Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting Guide

Introduction to Troubleshooting

Good troubleshooting skills are learned by using a logical, step-by-step 
approach to problem solving. The first step in the process is 
understanding normal instrument operation and preventive maintenance. 
A good, working knowledge of the instrument is essential for identifying 
and resolving operational problems.

Logical troubleshooting may be divided into three steps:

1.

Problem Identification

2.

Problem Isolation

3.

Corrective Action

Step 1, the problem identification step, is not only identifying what is 
wrong but also noting what is right. The investigation should identify the 
problem area and eliminate areas that are working correctly. Once this is 
done, the troubleshooting process moves quickly to the next step.

Step 2, Problem Isolation, further classifies the problem. Instrument 
problems are generally divided into three categories:

•

Hardware — component related

•

Software — computer program related

•

Measurement — related to sample analysis

Typically, hardware and software problems are corrected by an 
authorized Abbott service representative. Measurement problems are 
generally operator correctable. This category is further subdivided into 
problems related to sample handling, maintenance or calibration.

Step 3, Corrective Action, involves taking appropriate action to correct 
the problem. If the operator can correct the problem, with or without 
technical assistance, normal operation can quickly resume.

This Troubleshooting Guide is designed to enhance the troubleshooting 
process by providing information to assist in problem identification, 
isolation and corrective action.
