All these error messages cause the ST216 to terminate the firing. The alarm buzzer
will sound once per second. To reset the ST216 turn off the power to the instrument
and have the fault investigated and rectified by your installer or kiln service engineer.
Technical note: these error messages will cause the alarm relay
to open.
Note: these error messages are provided to detect kiln faults
and so offer some protection to the kiln.
