-------------------------- Warnings info --------------------------
1.09 Warning: This (default) low block size of 4kB in CytoUSB will decrease the effective analysis volume. (Only older CytoSenses)
1.09.1 Solution - Increase block size memory if the total particle rate is high enough (but prevent time outs) OR set to 'auto'
1.10 Warning: This threshold level is quite low and near noise
1.10 Warning: Take care you don't measure noise or in noise (this will give high particle rates but is in fact noise)
1.10.1 Solution - Increase threshold trigger level
1.21 Warning: Last calibration of sample pump towards analysis date was more than 90 days. (28-Févr-2023)
1.21.1 Solution - Check if the pumped analysis volume is the real volume by weighing
1.23 Warning: FWS-L and -R might indicate an air bubble problem 16% (100%=perfect)
1.23.1 Solution - Pinch valve to get rid of the air bubble or blockage by something different
1.27 Warning: FL Yellow HS : Nr of particles with signal height <10 mV is high (93 %)
1.27.1 Solution - Increase, set higher trigger threshold (to prevent measuring noise)
1.27.2 Solution - Decrease, set lower particle sample rate. Maybe caused by an overload of particles/ noise in your sample
1.27.3 Solution - Clean sheath, clean cuvette, clean tubing? (noise can be introduced by dirty walls)
1.26 Warning: FL Orange HS: Biggest particles found is only 146 mV. Detector sensitivity might be too low.
1.26.1 Solution - Increase, set higher FL Orange HS PMT voltage in CytoUSB (make more sensitive)
1.27 Warning: FL Orange HS : Nr of particles with signal height <10 mV is high (98 %)
1.27.1 Solution - Increase, set higher trigger threshold (to prevent measuring noise)
1.27.2 Solution - Decrease, set lower particle sample rate. Maybe caused by an overload of particles/ noise in your sample
1.27.3 Solution - Clean sheath, clean cuvette, clean tubing? (noise can be introduced by dirty walls)
1.25 Warning: Suspected particles data blocks found!
1.29.1: Maximum FL Yellow HS: suspect = 3
1.29.11 Solution - Particle rate too high?
1.29.21 Solution - Trigger too sensitive?
1.29.31 Solution - Details look at 'DATA DIAGNOSIS' in 'Check CytoSense-Diagnosis-Meta Data'
