Reboot Protocol

If you receive an instrument error message (eg. Syringe pump error), then follow the complete Full System Reboot Protocol to clear the error and attempt another sample sequence.

If you are trying to run a new sample sequence and there are no error messages, you may start at the Communication Check section to verify that the system is ready for a new sample sequence.
