ERROR CODES:

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter a "reset" mode. This mode brings all
the motors to a home position. If there is an internal problems with one or more of the motors
an error code may flash in the LCD. "XXer" may appear in the LCD where "XX" represents a
channel (1,2,3,5,6,7) with a possible alignment problem.
For example, when the display shows "02Er", it means there is some error in channel 2. If
there are some errors on channel 1, channel 2, channel 5 at the same time, you may see the
error message "01Er", "02Er","05Er" flash repeated for 5 times, and then the fixture will
generate a reset signal, all the stepper reset. If the fixture remain error message after
performing reset more than 3 times, it will detect whether the fixture has more than 3 errors.
If the fixture has more than 3 errors (including 3 errors), all the channels can not work
properly; but if the fixture has less than 3 errors, only the channels which have errors can not
work properly, others can work as usual.
