Troubleshooting
When Error Occurs
When Error occurs
- Check the error number on the controller LED display.

- The last four errors are displayed in 2- digit hexadecimal number.
- The latest error is shown on the leftmost side and the error history is shown in order.
- [Example of display]
- Remove the cause of the error (Refer to the below tables) and return to the normal operation.
Error "01""02""03""04""05""06"
