What if the instrument
failed the Self Test?
The cause is most often due to:
- instrument not properly
positioned in the case
- case was moved during test
- laser wavelength has drifted
- battery level is too low
Ensure sufficient battery
charge before attempting
Self Test procedure.
Make sure the instrument
is in its proper position,
all the way down, and flat.
After rechecking the above,
repeat the Self Test procedure.
The instrument has a built-in function to perform a Self Test
of the laser wavelength. Perform the Self Test daily before
scanning to ensure the instrument is operational.
A Self Test log file is recorded and stored on the instrument.
To access the stored files, refer to pages 18-20.
Self Test
Self Test takes 1-3 minutes
No yearly factory
calibration required unless
instrument repeatedly fails
the Self Test or presents
other problems.
CAUTION: Should the instrument
not pass after several attempts,
do not use the instrument for scan
work until the problem is corrected.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to
repair the instrument. Should the
instrument not work properly,
or indicate a fault or warning,
refer to the troubleshooting
section of this manual.
NOTICE: Laser wavelength drift
is a normal characteristic of the
RMLD-FR. The rate of drift is
normally low and will not affect
the Self Test if performed on a
regular basis. Scan work conducted
with an instrument which has drifted
and was not Self Tested may need
to be redone. If instrument does not
successfully perform a Self Test
after three attempts, contact
HEATH for assistance.
CAUTION
1. Turn on the instrument and
allow it to successfully boot up.
If the instrument does not find a
successful Self Test report for the
day, a pop-up message appears
on screen. Press the OK button to
continue. (There is no pop-up
message if a successful Self Test
report is found for the day.)
2. Press (long press) and release the
MENU button.
3. Select the Self Test option.
The screen will display and guide
the next steps for the Operator
to follow within 10 seconds
(enough time for the steps).
4. Place the instrument in its
designated area in the carrying
case, making sure it is all the
way in place and flat.
5. Result of Self Test is indicated
by audible tones:
One (1) beep every second
means instrument passed.
Two (2) beeps every second
means instrument failed, and
Self Test should be repeated.
If instrument fails on a third
attempt, contact Heath
Consultants Factory Service.
Result of Self Test is indicated
on the display. A Self Test file is
also created.
