CHAPTER 14 – ERROR MESSAGES

ERROR MESSAGES
Any operational anomalies found by the system during Senographe 2000 D operation are signalled by
Error Messages
. These may be displayed on the Column Readout and on the Control Console or in a
pop-up box on the AWS screen. They may be simple information messages requiring no action, or they
may indicate error or fault conditions requiring action from the operator and/or GEMS Service
engineers.
Note that messages displayed on the Gantry begin with three identification characters, which are
followed by the message itself. On the Control Console, the message is followed by seven further
identification characters. Thus, for example, the Column Readout might display
I76 FAILURE
while the
Control Console displays
I76 SENSOR FAILURE 158/011
. If it necessary to call GEMS Field Service
about an error, you should quote the entire message, complete with the identification characters.
The tables below list error messages which may occur, with explanations and recommended actions.
Table 1 lists error messages displayed on the Gantry: control console and/or column.
Source of the message is mentionned:
GAN = issued from Gantry, GEN = from generator, AWS = from Acquisition workstation.
Table 2 lists error messages displayed on the AWS screen.
