System User's Manual
7.2 Error/Alert Messages
C A U T I O N
When the system notifies you of alerts and errors, you
should immediately respond to the condition.
When the system encounters an alert o r error condition, the error code is
either displayed on the screen or written into the System Alert list.The error
code is an abbreviation for the conditions described in the listing below.
Codes in the E30 series (E30, E3 I , etc.) are not written into the System Alert list,
but are displayed on the screen when they occur. (They also cause the Activity
Error tone to sound [sequence of short high beep and short low beep repeated
four times].) These are activity (or "workflow") types of errors. In most cases,
this means that some action you have performed was not what the system ex-
pected, but you can usually perform the correct action, as recommended below,
without exiting the current operation.These activity errors are flagged by the
Activity Error icon:
System alerts, which comprise all error codes except those in the E30 series,are
reported in the System Alert list. These errors cause the Alert tone (medium
beep on for one second, off for 3 seconds, repeating) to sound (if it is enabled).
Also the System Alert icon appears on the Main Status Screen.The errors must
be reviewed t o clear the system alert condition. The System Alert list can be
viewed from the Main Status Screen by pressing the "system alert" soft key:
The error messages are listed in numerical order. Error sub-codes are shown in
the system alert list, and indicate specific conditions detected. Many sub-codes
are listed in the "Possible Causes" and "Corrective Actions" sections below.

If any error sub-codes other than those listed here
appear, note the sub-code and contact Becton Dickin-
son for assistance.
If the recommended corrective actions do not solve the
problem, contact Becton Dickinson.
