calibration.
Call an authorized service engineer.
Error Codes Definitions:
The Error Codes are the classification for errors detected automatically by the instrument. Each code
represents different errors that occur during the self-calibration or during operation. The Error Codes are
displayed on the wavelength display and are defined as follows:
