Errors & Warnings
The checker shows clear warning messages when erroneous conditions appear and
when measured values are outside the expected range. The information below
provides an explanation of the errors and warnings, and the recommended action
to be taken.
Light High:
There is an excess amount of ambient light
reaching the detector. Please check the preparation of the zero
cuvette.
Light Low:
There is not enough light to perform a measurement.
Please check the preparation of the zero cuvette.
Inverted Cuvettes:
The sample and the zero cuvettes are
inverted. Swap the cuvettes and repeat the measurement.
Under Range:
A blinking “0.00”
indicates that the sample
absorbs less light than the zero reference. Check the
measurement procedure and make sure to use the same cuvette
for reference (zero) and measurement.
Over Range:
Maximum concentration value displayed blinking
indicates the measured value is outside the limits of the method.
Verify that the sample does not contain any debris. Dilute the
sample and repeat the measurement.
Battery Low:
Battery level is too low for the checker to function
properly. Replace the battery with a new one.
Drained Battery:
The battery is drained and must be replaced.
Replace the battery with a new one and restart the checker.
