Anybody know what an leak test with "Inconclusive 2A" means?

Looks like you are having an issue with the first stage of your test

Leak Test Inconclusive Data
These codes are the possible cause of inconclusive leak test results, and
appear in the Inconclusive Data Reports as: (1), (2), (3), (4), or (5).
CODE 1 - Excessive temperature changes during test.
• Recent delivery of hot or cold product.
• Large drop in product level pulled cold or hot air into tank.
• Drifting measurement (within normal range).
• Above ground tank (may not stabilize to do valid leak test).
CODE 2 - Data quality check failed. Data is not ‘clean enough’ to meet the
Pd and Pfa requirements.
• Surface waves from the last delivery have not subsided. Allow extra
stabilization time before start of test.
• Thermal currents within product may be large enough to effect the
float stability.
• The probe float is at a transition point and is changing + or - 0.001".
• Excessive vibrations from overhead traffic.
CODE 3 & 4 - Calculated leak rates for test A and test B of leak test have
excessively different results. This is usually caused by some external
‘event’ happening during the leak test. Code 3 = leak rate > .3 GPH. Code
4 = or < .3 GPH.

Thank you, we have the generic list, but are specifically wondering about '2A' rather just '2'
