8)If the connection between the PMIS program and the AT200 Interface board is lost the error when starting the PMIS program will appear: ‘Can not find the AT200 camera controller’. The first step is then to power down the computer, wait for about 30 seconds and then start the computer again. The PMIS program is then likely to find the AT200 Interface board.
If the problem still exists the reset button on the AT200 camera controller might have to be pushed when the starting the computer. This reset button is located on the top of the interface board, (the computer must be opened to be able to press the reset button), see AT200 CCD Camera System, Hardware reference manual and the appropriate World Wide Web pages from Photometrics and GKR Computer Consulting.
9)If the HP SureStore tape bacup drive is not responding and gives the following error message:
1.Shutdown and restart computer
2.Run ScanDisk and Defrag
3.Close other applications
4.Try a different tape
5.Uninstall Colorado Backup, and reinstall
then the most likely reason is that there is a bad electrical connection to the backup drive. Open the computer, deconnect and reconnect the power connector to the tapedrive, and do the same with the SCSI connector (both ends).
