General Information on the Fault Memory

General information on the fault memory

Fault code setting conditions
Fault codes can be set in several circumstances, e.g.:
- battery disconnected
- plug connections disconnected
- power failure

In these circumstances, no fault is present in the system and the fault memory must be erased.

Fault memory Info key [F8]
In order to be able to assess the fault exactly, the fault memory Info key [F8] must be pressed. This information should be saved using the Save key [F4] and printed out. If a fault code is stored with "not present" status and no other problems are present, then the fault memory must be erased.

Open circuit - short to ground / voltage short / version; vehicle parameters / counter

Frequency counter When a fault first occurs, a fault entry with the status 'present' is set in the fault memory and the counter is simultaneously set to '50'.
If a fault is present, the counter is incremented by one whenever the system is 'booted'. The maximum count is 255.
The counter is decremented if the status 'fault no longer present' is entered and the fault does not occur again when the system is 'booted'. The entry in the fault memory is erased automatically when the counter reaches 0. If the error occurs again when the counter is between 1 and 49, the counter is reset to 50.

Lock status of MOST ring The value indicates the status of the MOST ring when the fault occurred:
- lock
- unlock

Supply voltage fault type The display shows which fault type has occurred:
- no fault type
- not present

Supply voltage The value indicates the voltage at the time the fault occurred.
