pressure is within the correct range and red when it is out of
range. The regulator has been set at the factory and is not adjust-
able.
There is no or low vacuum on the PNP Probe.
(Models prior to Feb. 2009) Check that the break-away probe tip
is snapped fully into place .
(Models Feb. 2009 or newer) Check that the probe is not loose
and that the o-ring is not destroyed or leaking. Refer to Checking
the Probe Assembly on page 4-12.
Determine if the PNP head probe is clogged. Clean if necessary.
Check the Probe vacuum and blow-off solenoids as follows:
1. At the Gantry Window, click the Actuator tab.
2. In the Actuate box click the Vac On (green). You should be able to
hear the vacuum at the probe and see the red LED light at the
lower solenoid on the right side of the head.
3. Click Vac Off. The lower LED extinguishes.

Tube Input and Output Problems
Neither of the tube platforms vibrates.
Make sure that tube input or tube output has been selected on
the Setup Window.
Make sure the vibration controls are rotated clockwise for more
vibration.
Only one tube platform vibrates.
Check the fuse.
For PS Machines delivered prior to 2009 only—
Switch off the PS Machine and check the 2 A 250 V fuse above
the three-wire connector on the back of the I/O Controller. The
input vibrating motor connector is labeled 9 1; the output vibrat-
ing motor connector is labeled 9 2.???
Check the power cable source connection.???
Check the 5A 250 V fuse on the bottom of the vibration control-
ler box (behind the control knobs).
If the fuses are continually being blown, the vibration controller

PS Computer Failure
A PS computer drive fails. A message indicates that a computer
has crashed.
[Models built after 2010] Your PS System is equipped with a
mirror-backup system called RAID that creates a real-time ghost
image. You may see an error message, or see a very quick mes-
sage at system start-up that reads CRITICAL STATUS. Your
PS System will continue to operate as normal on the backup
drive. However, you must replace the failed drive for continued
safety. Follow these steps for replacement.
1. Shut down the PS System. See Turning Off System Power on page
3-27.
2. Unscrew four 3/8 inch SHCS from the front of the Handler com-
puter and pull open the computer drawer from the PS frame.
3. Remove the top panel from the computer. Some models have
two screws on the back while others have thumb screws. With
screws removed, the top cover should slide back about.5 inch.
4. Locate the computer drive that has failed.
5. Remove wires from the back of the drives.
6. Remove the failed drive removal by unscrewing the three Phil-
lips screws holding bracket that supports all the drives.
Note that these have lock washers and at least one has a plastic
standoff.
Figure 4-60: Three Phillips screws (circled) secure the bracket holding
all the hard drives that are accessible from the from of the PS Machine.
Your PC Box and bracket may be different depending on manufacture
date.
7. Replace the failed drive with a similar model with 250 GB (not
more, not less), and install it.
8. Re-install in the reverse order.
