7.0 – LCD MESSAGES
APPLIES TO ANY STAGE
LCD MESSAGE
GARBLED OR NO READ-OUT ON THE LCD
THINGS TO CHECK
• Make sure that the cable from the LCD board (RPI P
art
#SCA022 or Kit #SCK062) is properly seated at the main
PC board connector.
• If using the Extension Cable (RPI Part #SCT026), make
sure that the cables are connected properly – see page
4, 2.1 - Extension Test Cable.
• The microprocessor may need to be reseated in its
socket. CAUTION: Disconnect power to the autoclave
and discharge the static electricity from your body
before touching the microprocessor (by touching the
autoclave’s metal chassis with both hands). Failure to
properly discharge static electricity can damage the
microprocessor and make it unusable. Press firmly on
the microprocessor and retest.
NOTE: If none of the above solves the problem, replace
either the LCD PC Board (RPI Part #SCA022 or Kit
#SCK062) or the main PC board.
LCD MESSAGE
SERVICE NEEDED
Applies to the original STATIM 2000 model 101102 only.
Steam generator/boiler has exceeded 171˚C or cassette
temperature has exceeded 147˚C.
THINGS TO CHECK
• If this message appears BEFORE depressing the Start
button, then check continuity of thermocouples. Ther-
mocouples should read ~ 10 Ω at room temperature or
main PC board may be faulty.
• If this message appears AFTER depressing the Start
button, check pump’s operation – see pages 6 and 7,
2.3 - Pump Tester Bottle (RPI Part #SCK024). If pump
passes test, boiler must be replaced.
• Water level in the waste bottle may be full, or the ex-
haust path may have a restriction or blockage.
• Check exhaust tubing for kinks or pinch points. Note: RPI
offers an Exhaust Tubing Kit (RPI Part #SCK017) or Ex-
haust Tubing sold by the foot (RPI Part #RPT380).
SERVICE NEEDED
(continued)
THINGS TO CHECK
(continued)
• Check the cassette tray venturi plate for blockage – see
page 42, Figure 9.5 – Cassette.
• Check for debris in the orifice and port holes of the so-
lenoid valve.
• Solenoid valve plunger may be compromised by debris
or may be worn. Check the plunger inside the flute/bon-
net for proper movement. Replace Solenoid-Plunger Kit
(RPI Part #SCK003) if necessary. See page 41, Figure
9.4 - Solenoid Valve.
• The steam generator/boiler may need to be cleaned –
see page 39, Figure 9.2.
• Steam generator/boiler calibration is needed – see page
40, Figure 9.3.
LCD MESSAGE
CHECK CASSETTE
(DOES NOT DISPLAY NUMBER ON LCD)
Applies to the original STATIM 2000 model 101102 only.
The temperature in the cassette has not dropped below
103˚C after the venting cycle.
THINGS TO CHECK
• Water level in the bottle may be full, or the exhaust path
may have a restriction or blockage.
• Check exhaust tubing for kinks or pinch points. Note: RPI
offers an Exhaust Tubing Kit (RPI Part #SCK017) or Ex-
haust Tubing sold by the foot (RPI Part #RPT380).
• Check the cassette tray venturi plate for blockage – see
page 42, Figure 9.5 - Cassette.
• Check the solenoid valve coil’s electrical performance -
see page 41, Figure 9.4 - Solenoid Valve.
• Check for debris in the orifice and port holes of the so-
lenoid valve.
• Solenoid valve plunger may be compromised by debris
or may be worn. Check the plunger inside the flute/bon-
net for proper movement. Replace Solenoid-Plunger Kit
(RPI Part #SCK003) if necessary. See page 41, Figure
9.4 - Solenoid Valve.

LCD MESSAGE
SELECT A CYCLE/PROGRAM OR INSERT CASSETTE
This can be displayed at any time before or during a
cycle/program.
THINGS TO CHECK
• The cassette thermocouple may be bent and stopping
the cassette from fully engaging the microswitch. For
additional information see the “Installation instructions”
for RPI Part #SCT030 available on RPI’s website,
www.rpiparts.com.
• The microswitch may have failed. The microswitch is a
N.O. type switch. Replace the Microswitch Kit (RPI Part
#SCK007) if necessary. See page 9, Figure 2.5.
LCD MESSAGE
PRESS STOP TO RESET
Applies to all later STATIMs.
THINGS TO CHECK
• After an error fault occurs, the error must be c
leared be-
fore shutting down by pressing the Stop button.
LCD MESSAGE
WATER QUALITY IS NOT ACCEPTABLE OR DISTILLED
H2O ONLY
The water placed in the reser
voir is of low quality and has
been detected by reservoir’s water quality sensor.
Applies to the STATIM models with water quality sensor
only.
THINGS TO CHECK
• Test the quality of the water being used, See page 14,
2.11 - Water Quality Tester.
DO NOT TRY TO CLEAN THE STEAM GENERATOR/
BOILER WITH ANY TYPE OF CLEANERS.
• Simply drain the reservoir and refill using distilled water
only. Do not use deionized, demineralized , or specialty
filtered water. Tap water must never be used.
• See page 36, 8.0 Troubleshooting Tips - "Water Qual-
ity Sensor Troubleshooting".
LCD MESSAGE
REFILL RESERVOIR EMPTY WASTE BOTTLE
Reservoir water level may be below minimum level. Cycle
will not start.
THINGS TO CHECK
• Check reservoir water level and refill if necessar
y.
• Check condenser waste bottle water level and empty if
necessary.
• See page 36, 8.0 Troubleshooting Tips - "Water Qual-
ity Sensor Troubleshooting".
LCD MESSAGE
CYCLE INTERRUPTED/NOT STERILE
Applies to all later STATIMs.
THINGS TO CHECK
A power failure or a time out condition occurred during a
cyc
le. The error must be cleared by pressing the Stop but-
ton.
NOTE: If this message appears in three consecutive cycle
failures, Cycle Fault #26 will appear on the display. See
page 32 – Cycle Fault #26.
