Error Messages, Diagnostic Tests, and Troubleshooting

User-selected diagnostic tests and settings

Tip:

The detector uses both user-selectable and service diagnostic tests and

settings. Only qualified Waters Service personnel can access service

diagnostic tests.

Overview of diagnostic tests and settings

You may operate several diagnostic tests and settings for use in

troubleshooting the detector and verifying proper functioning of the detector’s

electronics and optics.

Performing tests and changing settings

To perform the tests and change settings:

1. Press DIAG on the keypad. The Diagnostics list appears.

System cannot respond Error occurs while unit

is positioning next

wavelength or changing

modes during

initialization or

calibration.

1. Power-off and

power-on again.

2. If the problem

persists, call Waters

Technical Service.

System not calibrated

The calibration read

from nonvolatile

memory is not valid.

1. Power-off and

power-on again.

2. If the problem

persists, call Waters

Technical Service.

Units not normalized

No valid normalization

constants are saved in

the battery-backed

memory of the CPU.

Run the normalization

function (see
