Error Codes - Elation PLATINUM BEAM 5R EXTREME User Manual

E R R O R C O D E S
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,
2, and 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
persists 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:
•! 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.
•! 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.
