Dymax ACCU-CAL™ 150 Radiometer User Guide
Diagnostics and Error Messages
The ACCU-CAL™ 150 radiometer continuously conducts internal self-diagnostics. If the unit detects an internal
problem, it will display one or more of the following error codes in the upper left corner on the display. Error
codes are two alphanumeric characters proceeded by an asterisk (*). If two errors are experienced at the
same time, both error codes will flash alternately on the screen every 0.5 seconds. Certain error codes may
indicate problems that require returning the unit to the factory for service.
Low Battery Indicator (*LB
–
Low Battery)
If this happens during an exposure run, the reading is still valid. The low battery indicator is designed to
illuminate early enough so that your data remains valid. Under severe low battery conditions, the unit
does not operate. Therefore, confirm that the unit flashes “RUNNING” before initiating a reading.
Over-Temperature State (*OT
–
Over Temperature)
If the internal temperature of the ACCU-CAL™ 150 exceeds 65°C during an exposure run, the unit will emit
a steady beeping tone after the run. However, the data it has collected is accurate and can be read by
pressing the select button. When doing this, the beeping tone stops and you can scroll through the data
readings. In addition, if the internal temperature of the unit exceeds 75°C, the unit beeps once then
displays the internal temperature continuously. The unit will not operate until the internal temperature
drops below 75°C. The maximum internal temperature is 80°C. If the internal temperature exceeds 80°C,
the warranty is voided.
CAUTION:
If you press the reset button to initiate RUN mode before the unit cools to 75°C, all data
from the previous exposure run is cleared from memory. The unit beeps and again continuously displays
the temperature.
Over Range State (*OR
–
Over Range)
The over range error message will be displayed if the peak irradiance value is too large for the instrument
to measure. Note that a unit’s full scale range will be marginally higher than the normal range. Readings
that exceed the nominal range and do not result in an *OR error are valid.
Other Error Codes
For all other error codes, please contact Dymax for assistance.
