Reading Error Codes

Error codes are displayed in the following ways:
1. By SAM, SDM, or CSM display
2. By blinking Power LED
1.
If the on screen display is working, enter SAM, SDM or CSM and read the error buffer display.
2.
If the on screen display is not working, read the error code from the Power LED:
a. The number of blinks represents the number of the most recent error (the error in the "left" position)
b. The error code can be determined by counting the "off" blinks
Note: Some indications take 30 seconds or longer to appear on the LED.
3.
Displayed error codes are saved by removing the ac power. Displayed error codes are erased by pressing
the power button on the remote control or local keyboard.
