About the Operational Flow Charts
The Operational Flow Charts provide information on the start up sequence and, in the
event a failure occurs at any point of the start up sequence, what error code will be
displayed. Error codes are displayed via the red LED mounted on the PCB (refer to page
27 for details regarding interpretation of LED flashing pattern). If fitted, the controllers will
also display the full range of error codes.
The Sequence Number Table below indicates the section of the operational sequence
(boxed numbers on the operational flow chart) where the fault occurred.
Circled numbers, adjacent to the component or function, indicate the diagnostic test point
required to diagnose the fault. Refer to the table on page 25.
By locating the error code in the diagnosis charts the component/s or fault can be quickly
identified and tested using the diagnostic procedures outlined in this manual.
