3 Troubleshooting and Test Functions
Safety Flap Missing
The safety flap was not detected.
Before the needle moves down into the needle seat to inject sample, the safety
flap locks into position. Next, and the gripper checks the safety flap by trying
to move the safety flap away from the needle. If the gripper is able to move
beyond the safety flap position (safety flap not in position), the error message
is generated.
Probable Causes
• Safety flap missing or broken.
Suggested Actions
✔ Exchange the safety flap.
