Hi All,

My lab has an old Perkin Elmer Autosytem XL that has started to throw the following error message: "A/S control error carousel not init."

When starting a run, this error is causing the vial holder to spin back and forth but never settle and causes the run to error which in turn locks the installed method.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this and what the fix would be. We have had it pop up in the past but it always seemed to resolve itself. I would just like to know more about the issue so I don't have to wait for the instrument to fix itself!

Any input would be much appreciated!

As a note, we are running on Windows XP with (i believe) Total Chrom version 6.2.

Thanks!

Ben
