My instrument is showing an "Error 7461 Instrument not ready". What does this mean?

The camera has not reached the proper temperature for operation. The SECTOR Imager 2400 and SECTOR Imager 6000 cameras must cool to -25°C and -35°C, respectively, before the instrument becomes operational.

Check the camera cooling status (Tools > Status). The temperature should be dropping toward the operating temperature. Wait up to 45 minutes for the camera to stabilize at the correct temperature. This is a normal function of turning on the instrument. Restart the software. Check the temperature again. Contact MSD instrument service at 1-301-947-2057 for assistance if the camera temperature is not dropping.
