If an error occurs in this unit, the self-diagnosis function starts working and a code consisting of one alphabet and a four-
digit number appears on the LCD. Classification of persons in charge, classification of faulty blocks, and details of errors
can be checked by referring to this indication of five alphanumeric characters in the self-diagnosis code table.
The history of past errors can be checked in “Usage and Diag record” on the DATA tab of the Adjust Manual.
The self-diagnosis function is also described in the operation manual.

that the iris blades in lens are working.
If iris blades do not working, check the iris motor drive cir-
cuit in lens drive block. If iris blades work normally, con-
firm that they are closing completely and confirm following
items.

• Case of the iris blades do not close normally. Replace

the lens block.

• Case of “E: 61: 30” is appeared and iris blades closed

completely. Confirm that communication with lens
block is normal.

• Case of LCD is not displayed normally, check that

connection between imager board and main board.

• Case of LCD is displayed normally, replace the lens
