Reset
/ Initialization.
Many symptoms that are customer
generated, intermittent or cannot be verified can be resolved by using the
various Reset and Initialization options. Before visiting the customer’s home
ask the customer to 1st perform a System Reset by pressing the <POWER>
button on the side panel and holding it for 8 seconds.
The customer should be made aware when settings and/or options will be reset.
LED indications
and self diagnostics
The front panel Power LED provides an indication of the set’s operation and the possible cause of a malfunction.
The front panel Power LED provides an indication of the set’s operation and the possible cause of a malfunction.
Self
diagnostics
A blinking red and yellow Status LED will indicate an Error Code that can help determine the cause of a circuit failure.
The number of Red blinks indicates the value of the MSD (tens digit) of the Error Code.
The number of Yellow blinks indicates the value of the LSD (ones digit) of the Error Code.
Example: If the Error Code is “37”, the LED will continuously blink Red three times, followed by blinking Yellow seven times.
