Troubleshoot as follows:
l Review the test procedure: Was the Verify Test Plate seated correctly during testing on
the washer and the reader, with well A1 in the correct orientation? Was there a long
delay between steps, allowing fluid to evaporate?
l Inspect the plate for damage. Replace the plate (according to the prescribed procedure)
if the plate is cracked, warped, scratched, or otherwise damaged.
l Inspect the washer components:
o
Is the Verify sensor's collimator clean and properly installed? (Clean the Verify™
Level Sensor on page 133).
o
Have the plate carrier feet been adjusted? Contact BioTek TAC for recalibration
service.
Take corrective action if possible and rerun the test. If it fails again, contact BioTek
TAC for guidance.
