System Controller Error Codes
In the event of a machine malfunction, the system controller screen will display an error
code. These codes will be displayed in either constant or flashing text. Table 4-1 lists all
possible error codes and explains possible causes for each one. Refer to Section 2
(Operation) for instructions on how to navigate the system controller menu structure and
how to clear an error using the keypad.
When troubleshooting an error, perform only one check/alteration/adjustment at a time.
The solutions shown below for each error code are listed in the intended troubleshooting
order. Begin with the first solution listed for a given error. If the error persists, move on
to the next suggested solution. Note that some errors require the operator to press PLAY
to clear the error. If that is the case, press PLAY after each troubleshooting step to verify
whether the error has been resolved.
Error codes that recur frequently should be noted and investigated further as they may be
an indication of an incorrect machine setting or of equipment that should be
replaced/adjusted.
The system controller displays separate error codes for both the odd and even lanes.
When viewing a screen showing information for only one lane, only error codes
associated with that lane will be displayed. Press LANE to switch between odd and even
lanes. Multiple error codes on one lane will display one at a time. Clearing one will
display the next.

Error Code
BALL DET.
BALL RETURN
CTRL COM ##
400-051-202-01 Rev. B
Explanation/Solution
Both ball detector sensors are blocked for longer than 10s. Press
WORK then PLAY to clear error. Check for any obstructions
between detector and reflector. Check detector and reflector
alignment. Check electrical connections between detector and
system controller. Replace electrical cable if needed. Replace
detector/reflector if needed.
The front ball return is in an error state, is powered off, or the
signal cable to the system controller is disconnected. Reset any
anomaly at ball return. If using a non-QubicaAMF ball return
controller, check that Ball Return Select is set to OTHER in
system controller settings. Check all electrical connections
between ball return control box and system controller. Replace
electrical cable if needed. Code will clear automatically once
error is resolved.
Communication error (1-9). Operating system or system
controller malfunction. Restart power to system controller.
Reload system controller software. Replace system controller if
needed.
