Error Codes
This is a list of Error Codes that may appear on the
reader. If an error is displayed, call Bio-Tek’s Technical
Assistance Center between 8:30 AM and 6:00 PM
Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday,
except holidays. The number is (800) 242-4685 ;
outside of the USA, (802) 655-4044;
in Europe, (32) 3-829 0455.
Error Codes
Error codes are displayed on the microplate reader as a four-digit identifier. The first
digit will usually be either 0 or 8. The 0 denotes a non-critical error which means the
instrument will still respond to keypad input. An eight in the first digit denotes a
serious error which requires that the reader be powered down before additional
keystrokes will be accepted.
Displayed Error Potential Cause
ERROR 0200 Plate carrier did not find the home
sensor
ERROR 0201 Filter Wheel motor did not find the
home sensor; filter wheel not installed
ERROR 0202 Monochromator did not find the home
sensor
ERROR 0203 Robot did not find the home sensor
Errors 200, 201, 202 and 203 indicate that an axis was not able to correctly travel to its “home”
position. Both axes have optical sensors which, when interrupted, indicate that the specific
axis has been successfully “homed.”
