Power-Up Error Messages and LED Codes, BIST Error Reporting

Page 95 highlights

Power-Up Error Messages and LED Codes The system has three sets of tests that are run when first powered on: ■ Built-In Self Tests (BIST) ■ Power On Self Tests (POST) ■ Print Engine Self Tests (PEST) Note BIST and POST errors are not stored in the fault history logs. BIST Error Reporting BIST verifies basic electronics module CPU operation and reports failures by utilizing the rear interface panel PS and PE LEDs. These tests occur immediately at power-up, before POST tests are run or the control panel is initialized. The following table defines the blink patterns associated with a failure.

Follow the troubleshooting procedures for electrical shorts (see "Electrical Troubleshooting" on page 4-58 and check the power supply fuses). Initialization failure. The system is held in reset mode. This can be caused by an electronics module fault or a +3.3 V power supply regulation failure (see "Electrical Troubleshooting" on page 4-58). Also, see "Verifying Power Supply Operation - Print Engine" on page 4-71. Boot loader memory test failure. Ensure the systems RAM chips are properly seated and that the correct RAM type for this system is installed.

Power-Up Error Messages and LED Codes
The system has three sets of tests that are run when first powered on:
Built-In Self Tests (BIST)
Power On Self Tests (POST)
Print Engine Self Tests (PEST)
Note
BIST and POST errors are not stored in the fault history logs.
BIST Error Reporting
BIST verifies basic electronics module CPU operation and reports failures by
utilizing the rear interface panel PS and PE LEDs. These tests occur immediately at
power-up, before POST tests are run or the control panel is initialized.
The following table defines the blink patterns associated with a failure.
