Troubleshooting
No Power to the Darkroom or Transilluminator
1. Recheck the main power cord connection to the BioDoc-It darkroom as well as the power cables
between the darkroom and transilluminator.
2. Check the fuses located at the back of the unit next to the power port. A flat-head screwdriver will
be required. Turn the fuseholder cap counterclockwise and the fuse holder will pop out. Inspect the
thin wire within the glass fuse to see if there is a break in the wire. If so, replace the fuse(s). If fuses
are blowing repeatedly, contact UVP Technical Support for additional troubleshooting.
Transilluminator Will Not Turn On
1. Make sure to turn ON the two transilluminator power switches and that both switches are glowing
green. One switch is on the front of the BioDoc-It unit and is labeled UV Trans. The other switch is
located on the front of the transilluminator itself, directly below the darkroom door.
If the switches do not glow green, refer to “No Power to the Darkroom or Transilluminator” above.
2. Be sure the darkroom cabinet’s door is completely closed. There is a UV exposure safety cut-off
switch that turns the transilluminator off when the darkroom cabinet’s door is opened.
3. Be sure the transilluminator’s power jumper cord is securely connected at both the ends of the
cable.
