FILL / DRAIN:

The table shows the measured fill-

ing and drain times of all stations

(in seconds) as average values.

Short-term = the last 5 operations
Long-term = the last 20 operations
The values are usually different, but should not

have any extremes. If one of the values is signifi-

cantly above 250, contact Leica Service.

There could be a blockage, which in a worst-

case scenario could cause the instrument to

malfunction.
