AV700 – UPDATE : PNEUMATICS BOARD MALFUNCTION
Probably due to a voltage surge this weekend past, the pneumatics control board on 700 appears compromised. No VT regulation or sample transport is possible due to this and we are energetically trying to resolve the issue. Please look for further updates in this space. The machine is unusable until then.
