RF controller and
Monitor power lev-
els do not match
The Monitor and RF
Controller and constantly
checking to ensure they see
the same electrosurgical out-
put power during activation.
This error occurs if the
power they sense does not
match. This typically results
from differences between
the independent Monitor
and RF Controller sensing
circuits.
Use DACView to troubleshoot
the Monitor.
Verify that the output power is
consistent with displayed power
setting.
Check voltage and current sens-
ing channels for both the RF
Controller and the Monitor.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
Troubleshoot the
RF voltage (Vsense)
and current (Isense)
feedback circuits for
the activated mode.
170
Controller wave-
form inhibit failed
(will not dis-
able RF) (POST
ERROR)
The Monitor has detected
that the System Controller
cannot disable the RF Drive
signal during POST.
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
200
Modality function
timed out while
waiting for ADC
DMAs to finish
Component failure on
Controller assembly SPI
circuitry.
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
201
RF Controller emu-
lation restart.
Programming function only
NA
Return to ConMed.
202
Inter-processor
communications
error
Controller Assembly - Host
Port
NA
Replace the
Controller assembly.
204
Processor system
clock change failed
The clock frequencies that
run the microprocessors
normally change after they
are initialized. This error
occurs when they do not
change to the correct fre-
quency.
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
205
Halt mode active
beyond limit
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
206
RF Controller dis-
covered run time
bad CRC.
Errors found in software
downloaded from the
System Controller to the RF
Controller during initializa-
tion.
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
207
Unexpected mode
change while active
The selected output mode
changed while the system is
activated.
Cycle system power and deter-
mine if this error is repeated.
Replace the
Controller assembly.
236
Bad CRC on
modality coeffi-
cients
Calibration problem.
Recalibrate the system.
Replace the
Controller assembly
if calibration is not
accepted.
