ERROR CODE TABLE-DIAGNOSTICS
CRITICAL FAILURES AND NON-CRITICAL FAILURES
Failures are classified as either "critical" or "non-critical". A critical failure
prevents the PD 6500i from operating and must be corrected immediately.
When a critical failure occurs, the audio alarm sounds, the overhead display
begins flashing and the message, SYSTEM FAILURE, appears on the LCD.
A non-critical failure does not prevent the PD 6500i from operating; however,
it should be corrected as soon as possible.
CRITICAL FAILURES
• TX A or B FAIL
• POWER MOD FAIL
• RX BOARD FAIL
• RX A or B ZN # PK FAIL
• CABLE MISCONNECT
• DSP FAIL
