Warning and error messages
Warnings and errors are listed below in number order. To find the
warning or error number, check the area under the WARNING or
ERROR text in the top half of the screen.
Whether a warning or error appears depends on the situation:
• Warnings inform you of something that needs to be corrected
before a process can continue
• Errors inform you of an issue that is not recoverable (e.g. an issue
that requires the test to be restarted with a new strip)
