Calculation not
possible because of
division by zero.
Absorbance result
or Formula "b"
parameter is zero.

• An absorbance result was divided by

a "zero" value during the evaluation
of a

Division type method (Dual

wavelength method group). This is
not mathematically permissible.

Check the reagents and samples used
and repeat the measurement.

Do not enter "zero" as a value for the
Formula

b parameter.

There is only one
measurement left to
be performed in
this series of
measurement.
The maximum
number of
measurements
within one series of
measurements has
been reached.

• The number of measurements in one

measuring series is limited to 99.

Start a new series of measurement
after maximally 99 measurements.
