ERROR MESSAGES
Technical Manual
2 ERROR MESSAGES
2.1 General about error messages
The error messages are intended to assist the technician in situations where the control sys-
tem detects a condition that could be a possible fault. An error message usually indicates a
system error or malfunction rather than a user error. The error messages cover the following
areas:
• insufficient pressures to control the instruments or other pneumatic problems
• failed (open or short circuited) cables and/or valves
• printed circuit boards not functioning properly
• failed bulbs and/or fuses
• power supply failures or problems
• non-compatible printed circuit boards or software versions
• sensor and switch failures
• other miscellaneous errors.
The error messages appear on the display as a capital letter “E” followed by a number (“n.n”).
The number (left side of decimal point or if no decimal at all) indicates the type of error. Some
error messages also have a decimal part (number on the right side of decimal point). This
decimal part determines in more detail the reason for the error.
The error message stays on the display only as long as the error exists. In the case of several
simultaneous errors, the display shows them one at a time, in ascending number order. The
unit is otherwise fully functional, except for the reported error(s). Error messages are
not
stored internally for later retrieval.
After the unit has been updated with the latest version of the MCB software it may report an
error message that is not listed in this manual. In this case, please request a new revision of
the manual. The table on the following pages is a list of currently available error messages
and their meanings. For a detailed description of the error messages please refer to the indi-
cated pages.
2.2 Disabling/enabling error messages
The error reporting system can be disabled (service mode 15). This is useful in exhibitions or
showrooms when a complete installation cannot be made (missing vacuum, water or air sup-
ply). In these cases the errors
should be disabled so that the unit does not unnecessarily
show error messages on the display.
The unit briefly flashes an “HE 12” message on the display at power-on, to remind that the
error message system is disabled. Please refer to service mode “n.15 Disable error mes-
sages (n mode = 0, 1, 2)” on page C-20 for details how to enable/disable the error message
system.
