Error Codes - Elation E Spot LED User Manual

E SPOT LED™

13. ERROR CODES:

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter a " reset/test" mode. This mode
brings all the internal motors to a home position. If there is an internal problem with one or
more of the motors an error code will flash in the display in the form of " XXer" were as XX will
represent a function number. For example, when the display shows " 0Er," it means there is
some type of error with the Pan motor. If there are multiple errors during the start-up process
they will all flash in the display. For example: if the fixtures has errors on channel 1, channel
2, and channel 5 all at the same time, you will see the error message " 01Er" , " 02Er,"
and " 05Er" flash repeated 5 times.
If an error does occur during the initial start-up procedure the fixture will self-generate a
second reset signal and try to realign all the motors and correct the errors, if the error persist
after a second attempt a third attempt will be made.
If after a third attempt all the errors have not been corrected the fixture will make the
following determinations: 1) 3 or more errors - The fixture cannot function properly with three
or more errors therefore the fixture will place itself in a stand -by mode until subsequent
repairs can be made. 2) Less than 3 errors - The fixture has less than 3 errors, therefore
most other functions will work properly. The fixture will attempt to operate normally until the
errors can be correct by a technician. The errors in question will remain flashing in the
display as a reminder of internal errors.
PAN Error: The yoke is not located in the default position after start-up or after a reset
command. This message will appear after a fixture reset if the pan' s magnetic-indexing
circuit malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a motor failure (defective
motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB). This error may also be displayed if the
head/yoke was blocked during a reset function.
TILT Error: This message will appear after a fixture reset if the tilt' s magnetic-indexing circuit
malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a motor failure (defective motor
or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB). This error may also be displayed if the head
was blocked during a reset function.
