For example, if the Dock detects that a used Test Cassette has been
inserted, an error code will be displayed for several seconds.
This screen will be followed by a brief message describing the error.
12. TROUBLESHOOTING
The Silaris Dock performs a number of different environmental tests before and during an assay run to ensure that the conditions will
allow a successful assay. If any of these tests fail, an error code is displayed along with a brief notification of the type of failure.
The maximum operational altitude is 8000 feet (2438 meters) above
sea level. The Dock will check the altitude on its initial power up and
not continue if the altitude range has been exceeded. To continue, the
Dock must be re-located to an altitude below 8000 feet.
DOCK: The valid ambient operating temperature range of the Dock is
59-86°F (15 – 30°C). This is checked during power up and whenever
the Dock is reset. Move the Dock to an acceptable ambient tempera-
ture environment and let it sit for at least 5 minutes to acclimate.
CASSETTE: The valid operating temperature range of the Test
Cassette is 59-86°F (15 – 30°C). This is checked as soon as a Test
Cassette is inserted into the Dock. Insure that the Test Cassette
temperature is valid, and re-insert it into the Dock.
This error is caused when the Test Cassette is not recognized by the
Dock. The most likely reason for this would be that the latest program
revision has not been installed into the Dock. See section 11,
Re-programming the Dock.
It is also possible that the Test Cassette is not firmly seated into the
Dock. In this case, remove the Test Cassette, wait a couple of
seconds, and re-insert it, pressing it firmly into position.
Each Test Cassette may only be used one time. Even if a test does not
complete, that Test Cassette may not be used again if the previous
test was started or if the lid was closed.
Listed below are the different error codes with an explanation of the causes and requested actions for each.
