3 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ERROR MESSAGES

3.1 General error messages

E 1.nn Output short circuit on MCB
All valve and extra outputs on the MCB are short-circuit protected. Additionally, the MCB CPU
system is able to read the signal levels on the output pins. Therefore the following detailed
information can be presented about the possible short circuit.
E 1.01
E 1.02
E 1.03
E 1.04
E 1.05
E 1.06
E 1.07
E 1.08
E 1.09
E 1.10
E 1.11
E 1.12
E 1.13
E 1.14
These errors can only be detected when the circuit is active.
Disconnect the valve or output indicated and check if the error disappears. Otherwise the
problem must be in the cable, or as the last possibility, on the MCB. If the error does not dis-
appear even if the valve cable at connector P16 on the MCB is disconnected, then the MCB
must be replaced. Advanced: Replace both IC37 and IC36 on the MCB.
E 2.nn Main Control PCB output open circuit warning
The following list indicates which output is causing the trouble;
E 2.01
E 2.02
E 2.03
E 2.04
E 2.05
E 2.06
E 2.07
E 2.08
E 2.09
E 2.10
E 2.11
E 2.12
E 2.13
E 2.14
These errors can be detected when the circuit is dead.
Disconnect the connectors at the end of the indicated bad valve (load). Measure with an ohm-
meter that the valve resistance is in the range 50-300Ω. Disconnect the valve connector P16
on the MCB and check the condition on the indicated valve cable wires. Check that both the
disconnected wires are OK all the way to P16.
