13.6.8
Protocol interruption
Error
Comments and suggestions
System paused due to too
few consumables in the
“Reagents and
Consumables” drawer.
Open the “Reagents and Consumables” drawer and add missing items. Close the drawer and
perform an inventory scan.
Note
: Samples will be flagged as “unclear”.
Note
: If one or more tip adapters cannot pick up filter-tips, contact QIAGEN Technical Services.
Inventory scan of the
“Eluate” drawer starts
even though a batch is
running.
Each time the “Eluate” drawer is open and closed an inventory scan must be performed. During
the scan the batch/run is paused, which leads to samples being flagged as “unclear”. The
batch continues when the inventory scan has finished. After a successful scan of the “Eluate”
drawer, the user must press
Close
to continue.
Note
: All drawers except the “Eluate” drawer are unlocked during an inventory scan of the
“Eluate” drawer.
The protocol was
interrupted or stopped by
the system due an error.
The worktable must be cleaned up. Open the
Maintenance SP
menu and select
Cleanup
under
Cleanup
. Select the
Crash occurred
branch of the cleanup procedure. See Section 2.23.1 of the
QIAsymphony SP/AS User Manual — Operating the QIAsymphony SP
.
Important
: After successful cleanup it is necessary to empty all slot positions in the “Sample”
and ”Eluate” drawers and restart the machine. New runs can then be started.
The system stopped
because an 8-Rod Cover
or sample prep cartridge
could not be released
from the robotic gripper.

Switch off the QIAsymphony SP/AS instruments and try to remove the 8-Rod Cover or sample
prep cartridge from the QIAsymphony SP manually. If it cannot be removed manually, contact
QIAGEN Technical Services.
