System Test
Instrument System Test starting on page 74 describes this test and explains where to
find information on error codes and troubleshooting tips, as well as sample test reports
for Synergy H1.
Setup
If your assays use incubation, we recommend enabling temperature control for at least
37°C and allowing the incubator to reach its set point before running the System Test.
To access this feature, select
System > Instrument Control and click the Pre-
Heating tab.
Test Procedure
1. From the Gen5 main screen, select System > Diagnostics > Run System Test .
The duration of the test depends on the reader model; it can take a few minutes
to complete.
If the test fails during execution, a message box will appear in Gen5. Close the
box; the System Test Report will contain the error code that was generated by
the failure.
2. When the test is complete, a dialog will appear, requesting additional information.
Enter any required information and then click OK .
3. The test report will appear; it will show either “SYSTEM TEST PASS” or “SYSTEM TEST
FAIL *** ERROR (error code) DETECTED.”
If the test failed, go to page 145 to look up the error code and determine its cause. If
the cause is something you can fix, turn off the reader, fix the problem, and then turn
the reader back on and retry the test. If the test continues to fail, or if the cause is
not something you can fix, contact BioTek TAC.
4. If required, print, sign, and date the report, and store it with your test
documentation.
5. If applicable, turn off the incubator.
