7. Troubleshooting

Malfunction / failure
• Instrument not functioning.

• No display indication.

• Instrument not working at normal speed.

Printing a slide takes approx. 8 sec., even

after the warm-up phase has been com-

pleted.

• Check whether there is a general power failure (no power).
• Check whether the power plug is inserted correctly into the wall outlet

and whether the wall outlet is switched on, if applicable.

• Check whether the power switch is switched on correctly. Possibly, the

primary fuse has tripped. If so, the main switch will be in "0" = OFF posi-

tion (

Fig. 63

).

• Check whether one of the two secondary fuses is defective. (F1, F2

located at the back panel of instrument,

Fig. 64, see also Fig. 65

).

Some instrument malfunctions / failures are caused by defective fuses.
