Vial in Gripper
The gripper arm attempted to move with a vial still in the gripper.
During specific stages of the sampling sequence, no vial should be held by the
gripper. The autosampler checks if a sample vial is stuck in the gripper by
closing and opening the gripper fingers while monitoring the motor encoder. If
the gripper fingers are unable to close, the error message is generated.
Probable Causes
• Vial still in gripper.
Suggested Actions
✔ Remove the vial using the “Release Vial” function in the user interface.
Reinitialize the autosampler.
