7.1 Troubleshooting
When a problem occurs in the Leica ASP6025, take the following steps to diagnose the problem:
• Check for error messages indicating the nature of the problem.
• If an error message is displayed, press the Help button on the message for any information
relating to the cause.
• Check the Run Log for any messages that indicate the nature of the failure. If the failure
occurred during a program run, check the Run Log for an indication of whether the failure
occurred during the fill, processing or drain cycles, and the station in use at the time.
7.1.1 Power failures
If there is evidence of power to the instrument:
• Verify that the power plug is plugged into the socket and that the socket is switched ON.
• Verify that the power switches on the rear of the instrument (adjacent to the power lead), and
on the side of the instrument are both switched ON.
• Error messages indicating that there has been a power failure mean that power has been lost
to the heaters and the monitor, but not to the main control electronics. Perform test procedure
as described in "Power failure" (
Chapter 7.1.2 ).
