System Test
IMPORTANT!
Do not turn on the instrument until
the carrier shipping block has been removed. Refer to
Chapter 2
.
The System Test is performed automatically whenever the instrument is
turned on. It can also be performed manually through the ELx800 Main
Menu.
The reader will “chirp” repeatedly if the power-on System Test results do
not meet the internally coded Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA)
criteria established by Bio-Tek. A system test should then be initiated to try
to retrieve an error code from the reader.
To run the System Test from the instrument keypad:
1.
If running a System Test, attach a printer to the instrument. See
Connecting a Printer to the ELx800
in
Chapter 2
for
instructions.

The System Test report lists results in a Pass/Fail format (
Figures
16
and

) and can be viewed, saved, and printed. Print the report
to document periodic testing or troubleshoot.
If the reader fails the System Test, it will not perform a read
until the error condition is cleared. See
Chapter 6,
Troubleshooting and Error Codes
,
for a list of possible error
codes that may be displayed if the System Test indicates a
failure.
