                                  Error Codes

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter a 
“reset/test” mode. This mode brings all the internal motors to a 
home position. If there is an internal problem with one or more 

of the motors an error code will flash in the display in the form 
of “XXer”, “XX” will represent a function number. For example, 

when the display shows “02Er,” it means there is some type of 
error with the channel 2 motor. If there are multiple errors during 

the start-up process they will all flash in the display. For exam

-

ple: if the fixtures has errors on channel 1 and channel 2 all at 
the same time, you will see the error message flash “01Er”, and 

“02Er repeated 5 times.

If an error does occur during the initial start-up procedure the 

fixture will self-generate a second reset signal and try to realign 

all the motors and correct the errors, if the errors persist after a 
second attempt a third attempt will be made.

If after a third attempt all the errors have not been corrected the 

fixture will make the following determinations: 
1) 1 or more errors - The fixture cannot function properly with 
one or more errors therefore the fixture will place itself in a 

stand-by mode until subsequent repairs can be made. 

2) Less than 2 errors - If the fixture has less than 2 errors, there

-

fore most other functions will work properly. The fixture will 

attempt to operate normally until the errors can be corrected by 

a technician. The errors in question will remain flashing in the 

display as a reminder of internal errors.

01Er – PAN movement error:
If the yoke is not located in the default position after start-up or 

after a reset command. This message will appear after a fixture 
reset, if the pan-yoke’s magnetic-indexing circuit malfunctions 

(sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor 
failure (defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the 
main PCB).
