Control Panel
CONTROL PANEL - TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
| Symptom | Possible Causes | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| The system "crashes"; the hourglass no longer changes back to the cursor arrow; no operation possible | Internal Fault | If `normal' switch-off not possible, use a forced switch-off (press the on/off switch for approx. 5 seconds) to switch the control panel off and on again. |
| With the control panel docked, the "Operation" LED lights up orange. | Docking station power supply is interrupted. | Check whether power is present. Insert the power plug correctly. |
| Control Panel is not supplied with power via the docking contact. | Check the spring contacts for dirt or foreign objects. To set up a correct connection, undock and then redock the control panel tow or three times. If no faults can be determined, send a Fault Report Fax. | |
| "Temperature" LED lights up red; control panel switches off. | Excess internal temperature circuit breaker activated. | Move the control panel to a cooler room and allow it to cool down adequately. Switch the control panel on again. If the "Temperature" LED flashes yellow without the presence of high ambient temperature, send a Fault Report Fax. |
| "Battery" LED flashes yellow for 10 seconds on startup; control panel does not start. | After the control panel shuts itself off, there is still excess temperature. | Move the control panel to a cooler room and allow it to cool down adequately. Switch the control panel on again. If the "battery" LED flashes yellow without the presence of high ambient temperature, send a Fault Report Fax. |
| System does not power up completely; gets `stuck' with an error message. | Internal run error | Switch the control panel off (press the on/off switch for 5 seconds = forced switch off) and then on again. If the system still freezes, you must reinstall the Base CD in accordance with Section 3.5.3. If this fault occurs repeatedly, send a Fault Report Fax. |
| After complete discharge and docking at the docking station, the system does not power up. | Profound discharge of the battery. | After a profound discharge and docking at the docking station, you must wait approx. 3 minutes before the system can be powered up |
NOTE:
The power supply to the control panel cannot be measured at the open docking contact because the power is through-connected via a proximity switch only when the control panel is docked.
CAUTION:
Forced Switch-Off may be used only in the case of special faults. Continued use of this feature may cause operating system failure and device shut down. Normal shut off is performed by pressing the ON/OFF switch for 2 seconds.
