6.2.  Outdoor Unit Errors 

Current errors of the outdoor unit are displayed in the last position of the main menu of the 
SCMI-01.4  module.  The  first  line  contains  the  title 

Error

  and  the  second  line  contains  four 

two-digit hexadecimal error codes (or the sum of these codes, if multiple errors occur). After 
eliminating  the  displayed  errors,  this  item  will  cease  to  be  displayed.  To  view  already  not 
displayed errors, you should press 

ESC

 and 

ENTER

 keys simultaneously, when the default 

screen of the SCMI-01.4 module is displayed. You must press these keys in the given order, 
i.e. first press and hold 

ESC

 key and then press also the 

ENTER

 key. The display shows: 

 

   Err -1 

   AABBCCDD 

 
The number –

1

 after the title 

Error

 identifies the last (previous) error and the second line is 

the same as when displaying the current error, i.e. four two-digit hexadecimal error codes (or 
the sum of these codes, if multiple errors occur). You can use the ▼/▲ keys to display other 
previous errors with numbers from 

–2

 to 

–8

, i.e. it is possible to display up to eight previous 

errors.  If  the  number  of  errors  stored  in  the  SCMI-01.4  module  memory  is  lower  than  8, 
horizontal  dashes  will  be  displayed  instead  of  error  codes  in  the  empty  positions.  If  the 
number of previous errors exceeds 8, all stored error records are shifted and the oldest one 
is deleted. In this way, the error list is updated whenever a new error occurs and it cannot be 
deleted nor changed by another way. Summary of errors is given in the following tables:
