    KD-30XS955/34XBR960/34XS955/36XS955 Self Diagnosis SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION Supported model The units in this manual contain a self-diagnostic function. If an error occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER LED will automatically begin to fl ash. The number of times the LED fl ashes translates to a probable source of the problem. A defi nition of the STANDBY/TIMER LED fl ash indicators is listed in the instruction manual for the user’s knowledge and reference.
  • Page 9 KD-30XS955/34XBR960/34XS955/36XS955 Self-Diagnostic Screen Display For errors with symptoms such as “power sometimes shuts off” or “screen sometimes goes out” that cannot be confi rmed, it is possible to bring up past occurrences of failure on the screen for confi rmation.
  • Page 10 KD-30XS955/34XBR960/34XS955/36XS955 +B overcurrent (OCP) Occurs when excessive current fl ows through R5013. The increase in voltage across R5013 causes the output of Q5004 to go high, and this high signal goes to the micro. +B overvoltage (OVP) IC6505 detects +B OVP condition and turns on Q6522. This sends a high signal to the micro and also shuts down the AC relay.
