Step 8:
After the pass/fail Results screen has been displayed, press the encoder knob to display a second Results screen containing the target
temperatures, the GENIUS 2 readings, and the target versus thermometer variances.
Step 9:
The next screen will display "Write report to USB flash drive?" and display Yes and No below. If a report is desired, insert a flash
drive into the front panel USB port. Note: allow about 30 seconds after insertion for the USB flash drive to initialize. Use the encoder
knob to scroll to either Yes or No and press the encoder knob to make a selection. If No is selected, the screen returns to the Main
Menu. If Yes is selected, a report is written to the USB flash drive, using the thermometer serial number for filename and .TXT as the
file extension. The file contains the test results as well as other information such as serial number, date, time, user name, and
organization. This file is a simple ASCII text file and is only available in English. This file can be read by MicrosoftTM Windows
programs such as Microsoft™ Notepad and sent to a printer. After the file is written, the display will show "Push knob to continue."
Press the encoder knob to return to the Main Menu.
Step 10:
After completing a calibration check/recalibration, remove the probe connector from the battery compartment, using a rocking
motion to free the connector. Then reinstall the 3 AAA batteries, observing the proper polarity orientation. Finally, reinstall
the battery compartment cover and tighten the screw.
Step 11:
Remove USB flash drive before closing the lid of the case. The lid should be closed when the GENIUS 2 Checker/Calibrator is not in use.
Section VII - Error Messages
The error messages will have a number associated with them, such as Error 1, etc. The following is an explanation of the errors:
Error 1: Internal Error
This error is an indication of a problem within the GENIUS 2 Checker/Calibrator. If this error persists after cycling power off and
back on, return the unit for factory servicing.
Error 2: Unable to communicate with GENIUS 2 Thermometer.
This error is an indication of either a lack of communication or a miscommunication between the GENIUS 2 Thermometer and
the GENIUS 2 Checker/Calibrator. Check both ends of the thermometer probe cable, especially the end that connects inside
the battery compartment. The pins in the thermometer probe cable can lose spring action if they are bent or damaged. After
inspecting the probe cable, re-attempt the calibration check. If the problem persists, try a different GENIUS 2 Thermometer, if
available. If this does not resolve the problem, return the unit for factory servicing, along with the thermometer cable and the
GENIUS 2 Thermometer that indicated this error.
Error 3: Timeout
This error is an indication that the operator took too long to perform an operation. This error might be seen when connecting
to the GENIUS 2 Thermometer, or while installing a probe cover on the thermometer. The timeout is set for one minute. Try
repeating the operation that gave this error.
Error 4: Target Out of Range
This error is an indication that one of the blackbody targets is not within the range of temperature allowed. Check that the
unit is being operated within the allowed ambient temperature operating range. Refer to Section VIII. If operating within the
specified ambient conditions does not eliminate the error, the blackbody target(s) may be damaged. Return the unit for factory
servicing.
Error 5: USB Flash Drive Write Error
This error is an indication of a problem when writing the report file to a USB flash drive. Check that the write protect switch on
the USB drive is in the "off " position. Make sure that there is sufficient free space on the drive, and that security or encryption
features are not in use.
Error 6: Ambient Temperature Out of Range
This error is an indication that the ambient temperature is not within the specified range for performing an accurate recalibration.
Check that the unit is being operated within the allowed ambient temperature operating range. Refer to Section VIII.
