distilled water.
Make sure the Drive Fluid coil is not pinched.
The sample valve is faulty.
Contact Technical Support.
There is a problem internal to the instrument.

Review the log of calibration reports. Check for
dramatic changes in temperature or voltage. If
any of these are present, contact Technical
Support.

Check the drive and waste fluid levels. Verify that
tubing for both containers is tightly connected.
Check for sample probe problems.

Possible Cause
Corrective Action
Possible Verification Microsphere Causes:
The verification microspheres are not fully
suspended.
Vortex the verification vials to resuspend the
microspheres.
The wrong lot number or target values were
entered in the software.
Correct the lot number and target values in the
software.
The instrument verification microspheres are in
the wrong well.
Change the well setting in the software.
There are not enough verification microspheres in
the well.
Add at least five drops of verification
microspheres to the well. For accurate drop
volume, hold the vial upside down at a 90 degree
angle to the microtiter plate while dispensing
them.
You are using the incorrect verification
microspheres.
Verify that you are using the xMAP MAGPIX
Performance Verification Kit.
