3.3 Disruption of Measurements
Error messages may appear if a sample cannot be run. For example:
c
The No Cup message appears when a Cedex Sample Cup is not available in its position on the Multi Sample
Tray during measurement.
c The Tray not inserted message appears when the Multi Sample Tray is not inserted or not inserted correctly.
Some errors may block the analysis of the rest of the measurements. The level of error that should stop the
analysis of all samples is determined using the Error Level drop-down list at the top of the Multi Run dialog
box. The options for the level of error that will stop the analysis are:
c
Fatal: Only errors involving a system / hardware crash, when functionality is not available.
c
Critical: Data loss or any other error that results in an invalid measurement.
c
Error: Errors that do not result in an invalid measurement.
c
Warning: Warning messages with information for the user.
c Message: Any message will stop the analysis.
Information Note: If a problem occurs with the system when the needle is down, shut down the Cedex HiRes
Analyzer and Control Unit, then restart the Analyzer followed by the Control Unit (see “Starting the Cedex
HiRes Analyzer” for more information).
3.4 Nonlinear Measurements in a Sample Series
Measurements of activated samples are always done in a linear fashion following a sequence of cup position 1
to 20. If samples need to be analyzed individually and not in the usual linear ascending order, the samples to
be analyzed later should be inactivated and remain in the edit status. When all scheduled samples in the Multi
Sample Tray are completed, subsequent measurements with the newly scheduled samples can begin.
