Error Messages
The photometer will display an error message in the unlikely
event of malfunction. These error messages are mainly
designed to assist service staff in diagnosing instrument faults.
In the event of an error message appearing on the
photometer display, contact your local Palintest Technical
Services Department or your local distributor.
Error messages are coded 7, 8 and 9 and all relate to
blanking the instrument. In the first instance, the user
should
check
the
operating
technique
and
sample
clarity. If these are in order, then these errors indicate
a fault in the optics :-
Error 7 indicates too much light – remove the instrument
from bright light.
Error
8
indicates
a
fault
with
one
of
the
optics
components, and requires service assistance.
Error 9 indicates not enough light – follow ‘Cleaning the
Optics’ routine.
If the problem persists, contact your local Palintest
branch or distributor.
