Error Codes
Section 1: Error Codes
Introduction and Definitions
Introduction • The 500 BOARD monitors the PROCESSOR functions during normal
operations, and continually checksforerrors. When an error occurs,anerror code is displayed on the DISPLAY PANEL.
• Error codes are displayed by priority.
• The lower the error code number, the higher the priority.
• More than one error code can occur at one time.
• When 2 or more error codes occur, only the error code with the highest priority will be displayed.
• When a high priority error code is corrected, the next priority error code is displayed.
• All errors are stored in an error log on the 500 BOARD. Use a PORTABLE COMPUTER and the correct software for access to the error log. The error log records the number of times an error occurred.
• There are 3 types of error code: Fatal, Non-Fatal and Warning.
NOTE: When errors occur, the MICROPROCESSOR BOARD might disable some components.
Use the PORTABLE COMPUTER and the diagnostic tests to analyze the components.
Fatal Errors A Fatal Error indicates a problem which can cause a dangerous condition if the
PROCESSOR continues to operate. If a sheet of film is being processed when a fatal error occurs, the film will exit the PROCESSOR. The PROCESSOR will stop operating and no new films can be inserted into the PROCESSOR. If additional sheets of film are inserted before the PROCESSOR stops operating, the film will exit the PROCESSOR, then the PROCESSOR will stop operating and no films canbe inserted. If aFatalError occurs when thePROCESSOR is in the standby mode, the PROCESSOR will not operate and no films can be inserted. The operator cannot correct Fatal Errors. The operator should move BREAKER CB2, on the PROCESSOR, to the “off” or “O” position and make a call for service.
Non-Fatal Errors A Non-Fatal Error will not prevent the PROCESSOR from operating. Filmcan be
inserted into the PROCESSOR, but the image quality might decrease. The operator cannot correct most Non-Fatal errors.The operator should make a call for service.
Warning Errors A Warning Error indicates a temporary condition or a problem which can be
corrected by the operator. The PROCESSOR will operate and films can be inserted. Image quality might decrease.

All Errors

Important
When you check an electrical component or BOARD, also check all the:
• connections and CABLES for the component or BOARD
• voltages from the POWER SUPPLY for the component or BOARD

E041 Loss oftransportspeedcontrol
Note
This error occurs when the transport speed is set for 10 seconds and the speed is not within 7.6 cm/min (3 in./min) of the set•point.
When the PROCESSOR operates normally:
• The supply voltage from the QUAD POWER SUPPLY through the 7000 BOARD to the DRIVE MOTOR CONTROLLER is 24 V DC at PIN 3 on the DRIVE MOTOR CONTROLLER.
• The control voltage at Test Point 10 on the 500 BOARD is approximately:
1.0 V DC for the Extended Speed
1.9 V DC for the Standard Speed
2.6 V DC for the Rapid Speed
3.4 V DC for the K/RA Speed
Note
There might be large variations in control voltages between PROCESSORS.
Feedback pulses from the DRIVE MOTOR CONTROLLER at Test Point 8 on the 500 BOARD indicate the speed of the DRIVE MOTOR.
Error Codes
If the transport operates slower than the set speed, the MICROPROCESSOR increases the control voltage approximately 25 mV every second at Test Point 8 on the 500 BOARD. When the voltage reaches 5 V DC, the MICROPROCESSOR stops increasing the voltage.
