Manual Motion (Control) of the Magazine Belt
Installation Manual Version 001 BRUKER 39 (167)
Test for Sample in Magnet
If a sample is present in the magnet, a further check will be performed to see if the
sample is spinning and/or locked.
When a sample is found it will be removed and placed in the magazine. If no sam-
ple is found then a security test (SE) will be performed.
At the end of this test the normal sample changing procedure will begin. During
this procedure the sample changer will automatically look for the next sample to
be handled. The following message will be displayed during the normal changing
procedure:
POSITION No.
BUSY! No. YY
Where XX indicates the current position of the magazine, and YY the current sam-
ple number.
At the end of a sample changing procedure the following message will be dis-
played:
POSITION No.
(XX) or (XX / XXX)
Manual Motion (Control) of the Magazine Belt 6.5
Manual control of the movement of the magazine belt is accomplished by pushing
the two buttons located on the side panel of the magazine. The push buttons are
active only when the sample changer is not busy, i.e. idling in the ready loop.
The Occurrence of a Failure 6.6
If a failure occurs during operation, the sample changer interrupts the current pro-
cedure, causing the red ’CONT’ LED on the front panel to flash on and off. An er-
ror message, consisting of a code number and text, also show up on the display
and an error signal is transmitted to the host.
To resume operation after the error has been corrected, press the ’CONT’ button.
The sample changer will then continue at the same point it had reached just be-
fore the failure occurred. The host will be informed of the successful correction.
On rare occasions it may be necessary to do a new initialization, if the above
mentioned intervention did not correct the error.
