What #1401 means

But the detector must not penetrate through a radioactive wall. The above error message means that the detector is found to penetrate through a radioactive wall. p. 436

What to do

  1. Change the source-detector location parameters appropriately to fix this error. Then try again. p. 436

Before you service the product, read the safety instructions in the manual p. 526.
