6. Troubleshooting

Functionality Check

Ensure that every time the unit is turned ON, a beep sounds and the red back light flashes to indicate
that the unit is functioning properly. When the beep sounds and the red back light flashes, the system
has turned on without any detectable issues.

Service indicator

If the SERVICE indicator turns on, the operator must contact Brooks Automation technical support.
The SERVICE indicator will appear on the LCD screen if the unit detects an error or issue. These
include thermocouple detachment (OP), corrupted temperature correlation (TMP), stuck key (KEY),
EPROM reading error (EP), and thermocouple chip error (TIC ).

NOTE:

The SERVICE error will automatically turn off once the error or issue is

resolved.
