When the machine is started up, the CPU on the main controller PCB reads the system software from the HDD into the image memory (DDR-SDRAM) of the main

controller PCB for use as instructed by the boot program of the boot ROM.

The following screen remains on the control panel white the CPU is reading the system memory from the HDD into the image memory (DDR-SDRAM), with the

bar indicating the progress of the startup sequence.

Never turn off the main power while the progress bar is indicated. The CPU is accessing the HDD, and turning off the power can cause a fault (E602) on the HDD.

4.3.2 Start-Up Sequence

/ / / / iR C3380i / iR C3380 / iR C2880i / iR C2880

1. Boot Program (interval 1)

The boot program is executed by the CPU on the main controller PCB when the main power switch is turned on, making checks on the image memory (DDR-

SDRAM) and the HDD condition.

An error code will be indicated if a fault is detected. If the check ends normally, the control program is read from the HDD to the memory.

2. Control Program 1 (interval 2)

1) The individual devices (i.e., hardware components on the controller PCB) are checked and initialized.

2) If the engine was not previously turned off appropriately (i.e., by performing its shut-down sequence), the system files are repaired as necessary. (The engine

may need an extra time when starting up.)

3) The individual program modules are initialized.

3. Control Program 2 (interval 3)

1) The individual software modules are initialized, and the printer and screen configurations are established.

2) The start-up sequence ends when the printer and scanner are correctly recognized. Otherwise, an error code (E732/E733) will be indicated at the end of a

connection time-out.

The engine becomes ready to accept a job when the start-up sequence ends normally. (Its control panel displays the control screen, and the Start key LED changes

from red to green.)
