I have a colleague that is having a power issue. His laser aiming beam comes on when he turns on the laser, but he says the screen stays dark and there is no sound of the laser powering up or coming on. Does anyone know if the aiming beam is on it`s own power supply? Or another reason this might be happening?

Hi, 
I have this unit with the error,  PLEASE CALL BIO-RAD FOR SERVICE SLOW BLOCK CYCLING.
When the Temp is set to 95degrees, it gets to apprx 8 degress less than set temp and then slowly increases. But displays the above message. 
If I stop and try to run another test it then delivers message "No Blocks are ready to run a real time protocol"   This message only then disappears after a reboot.    Initial feedback is that the block heater is faulty and needs to be replaced.
Is this a reasonably straight forward process or are special aligment tools required apon re-assembly.    
We are trying to decide if we fix internally or send out for repair.   

Any advice and or technical tips on further fault finding this would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Dan

I have a CFX Connect here and I'm not able to open or close it. It remains in the open state no matter what I do. The manual open/close button doesn't work , same for the close button in the CFX manager. I manually latched the lid into the closed position but it still reads as open in the CFX manager. What could be a possible diagnosis for this problem? Some help will be really appreciated
