Error message
Description
Remedy
737
BLM: Detection of
tube orientation
failed
The tube orientation sensor was
unable to detect a cap and is
hence unable to determine the
tube's orientation on the
transport.
Check the tube's position on the tube
transport. It might be tilted or jammed.
Check the sensor. Keep in mind that, once
the BLM's hood has been opened, the entire
area between the first and the second tube
orientation sensor needs to be cleared of all
tubes.
738
Transfer turner
(BLM) did not
reach one of its
end positions
The bulk loader module's
transfer turner did not complete
its turning motion and might be
blocked.
Search for obstacles or jammed tubes within
the unit's range of movement and remedy
the situation. Then press [Start] on the bulk
loader module's screen.
739
No tube inside the
turning unit
(BLM)
A tube has been transferred
from the bulk loader module's
conveyor belt onto the slide
towards the transfer turner but
did not reach the latter within
the allotted time.
In case the missing tube is located within the
input sorter, put it into the turning unit
manually. If remedying the error requires
you to open the bulk loader module's hood,
the entire area between the first and second
tube orientation sensor needs to be cleared
of all tubes.
740
BLM: Failed to lift
tube onto the
upper conveyor
At the BLM's tube buffer, lifting
the foremost tube onto the
upper conveyor has repeatedly
failed (timeout: 15 seconds).
Check the lift's functionality and check
whether the buffer contains at least one
tube. Remove any obstacles e.g. canted
tubes. Keep in mind that, once the BLM's
safety cover has been opened, the entire area
between the first and the second tube
orientation sensor needs to be cleared of all
tubes.
745
Communication
with BLM failed
All attempts to connect to the
bulk loader module have failed.
Check if the bulk loader module
is indeed powered on. Check the
interconnecting cable.
Contact a service technician if the situation
cannot be remedied.
746
Protocol error in
communication
with BLM
The bulk loader module's reply
does not conform to the defined
communication protocol. Please
contact customer support or a
service technician.
Press [Cut communication] to abort any
further attempts to communicate with the
bulk loader module. This will deactivate all
network communication with the bulk
loader module and allow isolated operation
of the system. To reinitiate communication,
both the system and the bulk loader module
must be rebooted.
