When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis
function starts working, and displays on the viewfinder, or LCD
screen what to do. This function consists of two display; self-
diagnosis display and service mode display.
Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction
manual.

When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
viewfinder or LCD screen consists of an alphabet and 4-digit number,
which blinks at 3.2Hz. This 5-character display indicates the
“repaired by:”, “block” in which the problem occurred, and “detailed
code” of the problem.

The service mode display shows the last self-diagnosis code shown in past.

While pressing the “BACK LIGHT” key, set the switch from OFF to ON, and continue pressing the “BACK LIGHT” key for 5 seconds
continuously. The service mode will be displayed, and the counter will show the backup No. and the 5-chracter self-diagnosis code.

The backup No. in the [ ] indicates the order in which the problem occurred. (If the Number of problems which occurred is less than 6, only
the number of problems which occurred will be shown.)
[1] : Occurred first time

[4] : Occurred fourth time

[2] : Occurred second time

[5] : Occurred fifth time

[3] : Occurred third time

[6] : Occurred last time

Switching of destination can’t be done.

Turning OFF the power supply will end the service mode display.

The self-diagnosis display data will be kept even if the lithium battery (BT4101 of the control switch block (PW-2980)) is removed.
