The instrument does not have enough power to operate for a full
day. The instrument should be recharged or connected to an
external power supply.

This indicates that one of the measurement channels within the
analyser has an issue on start-up. Please contact technical support
for further guidance.

Manager software, it is possible to export the current configuration and e-mail it to the
manufacturer’s Technical Support or Service Department. Depending on the type of error it may
be possible to correct the configuration file and import it back into the instrument.
