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
have 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.

DESCRIPTION
Movement is not located in the default position after the reset.
This message will appear after a fixture reset if the magnetic-indexing circuit
malfunctions (sensor failed, or magnet is missing) or there is a motor failure
(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB). This error may also
be displayed if the head/yoke was blocked during a reset function.
Movement is not located in the default position after the reset.
This message will appear after a fixture reset if the magnetic-
indexing circuit malfunctions (sensor failed, or magnet is
missing) or there is a motor failure (defective motor or a
defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).
