MESSAGE REASON
BATTERY: The memory backup battery has failed. The Lithium
battery needs replacement by a qualified technician.
INVALID: The Read button was held down too short causing an
invalid measurement. If “INVALID” appears after the
Read button was held down for the proper length of
time or if “READING” is displayed an abnormal
length of time while taking a measurement, possible
causes are defective Side Sensor, Reading Head
Assembly, or Transmission PCB.
LAMP FAIL: The Read Lamp has failed its intensity test. The Read
Lamp should be examined and possibly replaced.
When this happens, you can get out of this error.
