IMPORTANT:
If you ever see
RED
text during boot-up, make note of it.
How bad is it to see RED text during boot-up? It depends. It may mean there are errors on the card or
something is corrupted in non-volatile memory.
NOTE:
Powering on the unit and holding the
MENU
knob
(just after the unit has started printing text) will
freeze the display and allow the Operator to see any warning(s).
