3.7 Foot control related error messages

E 51.n Cable from foot control is loose or connected into wrong
connector on MCB
E 51.1
E 51.2
The foot control cable is disconnected from the unit, or the cable is open circuited, or the foot
control has failed. Check if the foot control gets power by checking its that its internal yellow
status-LED is blinking. Try to recalibrate the foot control, see page 2.6 "Calibrating foot con-
trol" on page H-15 for details.
E 52
The recently attached foot control is of a new type, of its software is not compatible with the
MCB software. Please update the MCB software. The new software on the MCB is also still
compatible with the older version(s) of the Prostyle Compact foot controls.
E 53
The data signal is short circuited to ground. Check the condition of the foot control cable and
replace it if necessary. Try with another foot control to determine the location of the problem.
Check also the condition of the internal foot control cable going from the MCB to the foot con-
nector at the rear of the unit base.

Foot control re-trigger error.
Calibrate the foot control. If it does not help, check that the capacitance sector
plate on the pedal is not touching the foot control PCB, or is not too close to the
PCB. It is also possible, however very unlikely, that the foot control PCB is
defect.
