CHAPTER 1 Error Recovery Procedures General Error Recovery When a problem occurs at a unit, an audible alarm sounds and flashing warning lights activate. The keypad display at the affected unit will show which error code the problem generated. The error code is a three-digit number, which the keypad display shows in two segments (for example, "1-50"). The error code and sensor in question will also be displayed in red on the bottom left hand corner of the Line Controller until the alarm is silenced.
Error Recovery Procedures Error Code Tables 8 Locate the actual sensor in error on the unit. The sensor in error is labeled on the unit. 9 Spend a moment looking at the hardware and try to find the cause of the problem. 10 After investigating the cause of the error, now perform the steps suggested in the Solution column. 11 Press PAUSE/RUN to resume routine operations. Pay attention to the area around the sensor that generated the error. Ensure that the error has been resolved.

Error Recovery Procedures Error Recovery Shutdown Error Recovery Shutdown The Error Recovery Shutdown procedure takes the LH 1500 system offline, stopping the command of the Line Controller, interrupting LIS interfacing and powering off the automation line. 1 If possible, allow all specimens to complete analysis and arrive at appropriate positions on the Outlet and Stockyard. 2 If possible, press PAUSE/RUN button on the Outlet Unit keypad.
Error Recovery Procedures Error Recovery Startup 9 Press the red power OFF button on the Inlet Unit and turn off the automation line. NOTE Wait 60 seconds before pressing the green power ON button. Error Recovery Startup The Error Recovery Startup procedure brings the LH 1500 system online; powering on the automation line, re-initializing robotics, restoring LIS interfacing and command to the Line Controller. 1 Complete System Shutdown Procedure.
Error Recovery Procedures Disabling the LH Unit Block(s) from the Line Controller 9 Check for any Units that are Magenta colored. This means that there is a communication error between the Line Controller and the LH 1500 System. It may be necessary to: • Perform the Shutdown procedure. Select Exit on the Main Menu Screen Menu Bar at the Line Controller and ensure the Line Controller computer powers off. Press the red power OFF button at the Inlet Unit to power off the automation line and wait one minute.
Error Recovery Procedures Removing Cassettes from the Connection Unit 3 4 Select to save changes or Select to exit. 5 Perform the Routine Tasks or Error Recovery procedure. Select and return to the Main Menu. Enabled LH Unit Blocks appear off-white. Disabled Unit blocks appear gray. NOTE 6 • After a Connection Unit is Disabled, the Loading and Unloading Arms pause once all specimens have been off-loaded from the LH 750 Analyzer.
Error Recovery Procedures Removing Cassettes from the Connection Unit 6 Remove third cassette at position number one. At the same time remove the fourth (last) cassette at position number six. Proceed to Step 9. 7 Remove the right-side tabletop access cover and remove the front covers of the Connection Unit, and set aside. 8 Remove all four of the cassettes from the Connection Unit.
Error Recovery Procedures Loading Cassettes in the Connection Unit Loading Cassettes in the Connection Unit Proper loading of the cassettes minimizes system errors and allows the Connection Unit to accurately organize the cassettes. 1 Before loading cassettes into a LH Connection Unit, ensure that the: • LH 1500 robotic line has initialized with no errors. • LH connection keypad LED indicates the AUTO status. • LH connection Unit has not detected an error (if possible).
Error Recovery Procedures Secondary Analysis Mode on the LH 1500 System Figure 1.2 LH Cassette Handling Mechanism Secondary Analysis Mode on the LH 1500 System The use of Secondary Mode allows analysis of specimens without track processing. Secondary Mode is the quickest mode of analysis for STAT specimens when numerous specimens are being processed by the LH 1500 System. 1 Press STOP one time ONLY on the LH 750 Analyzer's keypad.
Error Recovery Procedures STAT-CASS Mode STAT-CASS Mode The STAT-CASS mode (manual cassette mode) of operation allows processing of cassettes without automation loading and unloading. 1 Press the STAT-CASS button one time only to select the STAT-CASS mode of operation. The LH Connection Unit stops cassette loading from the Connection Unit Loading Arm to the LH Analyzer. (Samples currently being processed on the LH 750 Analyzer complete analysis and return to the Connection Unit for unloading.
Error Recovery Procedures Bypassing the Connection Unit Table Bypassing the Connection Unit Table In the event of an unrecoverable error condition due to hardware errors at the Connection Unit Table, the Connection Unit will PAUSE and prevent samples from being processed. Utilizing Function 97 will bypass the Connection Unit Table allowing processing of samples by the Connection Unit Conveyor bar-code reader. 1 Perform the Error Recovery Shutdown procedure of the LH 1500 System.
