System Warnings/Errors - Christie Roadie HD+35K User Manual

Bad Sync
The message "Bad Sync" occurs when HSYNC or VSYNC are active , but the signal cannot be displayed. Such
a condition occurs when only one of the two sync signals is present, or when either sync signal is unstable or of
the wrong frequency. Correct the signal or select another input.
Other Signal Error Messages
In addition to the common "Bad Sync" and "No Signal" errors, you may encounter a signal error message
indicating that HSYNC and/or VSYNC are either too fast or too slow. When such a message appears, check
the frequencies shown in the Status menu. If they are correct, then the projector does not recognize the signal.
On some PCs you may be able to change the settings to generate a compatible signal. If the frequencies shown
in the Status menu are incorrect, check the cabling to see where the problem might originate.

3.15.1 System Warnings/Errors

When the projector encounters a system malfunction, either a System Warning message or a System Error
message may appear. Both types of messages are accompanied by a numerical error code on the "Status" LED
and a related text message in the LCD Status Display window. A system malfunction can be cleared by
pressing E

twice from the presentation level, but may indicate the need for service by a qualified Christie
service technician.
NOTE:
System messages appear on-screen only if Display Error Messages has been set to "Screen" or "All".
System Warnings
A system warning indicates that a system malfunction has been detected (see Status LED Codes, below). A
system warning message replaces any input signal message and disappears when the input signal status
changes. While the projector will remain operational, the message indicates the presence of a potentially
serious problem that should be reported to the manufacturer. You can press E
but for best results you should reset the projector-power the projector down and up again with the P
System Errors
A system error message indicates that a serious malfunction has been detected and must be reported to the
manufacturer as soon as possible (see Status LED Codes, below). The projector will no longer operate, and
must be reset-power the projector down and up again with the P
NOTE:
Some error messages will require a full AC power cycle.
The Status LED Codes
If the status code displayed on the back of the projector shows one of the following values, you have
encountered a likely system error requiring the attention of a qualified service technician (see System
Warnings and System Errors, above). Acknowledge and clear the error by pressing E
presentation level, or try resetting the projector by powering it off and on again, cooling when necessary.
Consult Table 3.9
The specific code number identifies the source of the error detected, and is particularly useful in cases where
the projector is too far away to read the accompanying text message in the LCD status display window.
For example, the code "27" means the lamp could not be turned on. Error codes for this projector are listed in
Table 3.9.
