Re: [DIYbio] Tecan Robot Initialization Error

Hi Payton, 

Hope you've already managed to clear the error - if not, I have a few pointers, and can probably give you more with a little more information. 

Let's start with the obvious - have you already power cycled everything? As in, power down the robot, disconnect from circuit, wait to let all caps bleed off, then reconnect and power on. 

Next: are there any error messages? If so, can you share screen shots? 

Also: if possible, open another method - do you get the same behavior? 

Lastly: each of the arms (assuming you have a standard 3-arm config with a RoNa, an MC96 and a LiHa) should be running their own homing routine during initialization - do any of them complete correctly? 

Feel free to DM me if you're still stuck. 

Cheers, 

Rikke

Hello, 

I was recently tasked with making a fully automatic worklist maker for the Tecan Freedom Evo I am attempting to test my worklist compatibility and the robot will not initialize out of the blue. It worked perfect last Friday and now it has decided to not work. Whenever I press initialize the robot moves the tips slightly and then the alarm sounds and the initialization fails. None of the tips are stuck any suggestions?
