196 | Chapter A: Error Codes
Code Message What to do
1415 AutoPrime value out of range Contact BioTek TAC.
1500 No buffer fluid detected at the
start of a wash protocol
Fluid detection errors. Make sure the supply
bottle is full and properly connected, the
tubing is not kinked, blocked, etc., and the
correct port/valve is selected.
1501 No buffer fluid detected before
the washer dispense step
Note: Running very low density fluids, like alcohol, may generate some of these fluid
detection errors because the fluid prohibits the float detector from operating
properly. Disable the Fluid sensor (Washer Settings) while using such low
density fluids, but be vigilant about monitoring fluid levels.
1502 The buffer valve selection is
invalid
Contact BioTek TAC.
1503 Dispense volume error Contact BioTek TAC.
1504 No buffer detected flowing
through the manifold during an
operation
Flow detection errors. Make sure the supply
bottle is full and properly connected, the
tubing is not kinked, blocked, etc., and the
correct port/valve is selected.
1505 No buffer detected at the end of
a wash protocol
1506 The requested carrier Y-axis
position is out of range
Contact BioTek TAC.
1507 Internal valve transition error Contact BioTek TAC.
1508 Pre-dispense volume error The specified Pre-dispense volume is invalid
for this plate type. Edit the protocol.
1509 Low flow 192-tube manifold
error
The 192-tube manifold does not support cell
wash or low-flow protocols. A wash step
mismatch has occurred. Edit the protocol.
1510 Low flow 96-tube manifold error Contact BioTek TAC.
1511 External Buffer Switching valve
module is required
The current protocol is defined to use
different valves of the Buffer Switching
module, which is not installed. Edit the
protocol.
1512 Invalid plate type The specified plate type is not supported
with the current hardware.
