Introduction and Definitions
1C7839 – July 1995 3
Section 1: Introduction and Definitions
Introduction• The 500 CIRCUIT BOARD monitors the operation of the Processor and continuously checks for
errors. When an error occurs, an error code displays on the DISPLAY PANEL of the PRINTER.
• Error codes appear in order of priority.
• More than one error code can occur at one time.
• The lower the error code number, the higher its priority.
• When 2 or more errors occur at the same time, only the highest priority error code appears on the
display panel.
• When the higher priority error/warning code is corrected, the next priority error/warning code
appears on the display panel.
• In addition, all errors are stored in an error log on the 500 CIRCUIT BOARD. This error log,
accessable with the portable computer and appropriate software, indicates how many times each
error has occured.
• There are 3 types of error codes: Fatal, Non-Fatal, and Warning.
Note
When errors occur, certain components may be disabled by the microprocessor. Use the portable
computer and diagnostic tests to help troubleshoot the components.
Fatal Errors
A Fatal Error is any error that can cause a hazardous situation to develop if the processor is allowed to
continue to operate. The user cannot correct the error. The printer will not send film to the processor.
Move the MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER CB1 to the “O” position and call for service.
Non-fatal Errors
A Non-Fatal Error is any error that in most cases cannot be corrected by the operator. The printer will
not send film to the processor. The operator should call for service.
Warning Errors
A Warning Error is any error that can be corrected by the operator. The operator can override some
errors, such as an E132 and an E134, to allow the printer to send film.
The processor can continue to operate. The error is a temporary condition or one which the operator
can correct. Image quality may be reduced.

[9] Adjust the tension on the RACK CHAIN so that the ROLLERS operate smoothly.
Dryer Remedies
[1] Remove any dirt from the DRYER AIR TUBES and from within the SLOTS in the DRYER AIR TUBES. Use a
BOTTLE BRUSH TL-4833 to clean the AIR TUBES. Rinse the AIR TUBES with water.
[2] Check the AIR TUBES are in the correct position.
[3] Adjust the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL SETTING to the lowest possible temperature that still allows
good drying.
Miscellaneous Remedies
[1] Check incoming water temperature. The water temperature must be between 4 and 29˚C (40 and 85˚F).
[2] Check that the TOP COVER is closed and that the ACCESS PANELS are installed on the processor.
[3] Check that light does not leak through the LIGHT-TIGHT GASKET on the PRINTER DOCKING ASSEMBLY.
[4] Check that the wash water is flowing.

Problem — Wet Films
Replenishment Remedies
[1] Check that the replenishment rates are set for correct replenishment. Check that:
• the replenishment calibration is correct
• the TUBING of the REPLENISHMENT SYSTEM is straight and not pinched
• the REPLENISHMENT PUMP is operating
• HOSE CLAMPS are tight.
• the LEVEL SENSOR PROBES and CONNECTORS are clean.
[2] Change any chemicals that were not mixed correctly, that are exhausted, or are contaminated.
When mixing fresh chemicals, follow these recommendations:
• Mix a maximum of a 2-week supply of DEVELOPER REPLENISHER.
• Mix all chemicals and soutions as directed.
• To prevent contaminating the developer, always use a SPLASH GUARD and DRIP TRAY when removing
the FIXER RACK from the Processor.
[3] Fill the REPLENISHER TANKS if the solution levels are low.
[4] Check that:
• the DRAIN VALVES are completely closed
• the processing TANKS are full
Recirculation Remedies
[1] With the Processor energized and the processing TANKS full, check for movement of the solutions at the
surface of the processing TANKS. Movement indicates recirculation. If no movement is observed, check that:
• the TUBING of the replenishment system does not have obstructions and is not pinched
• the REPLENISHMENT PUMP is operating
• the DEVELOPER FILTER is seated correctly
Dryer Remedies
[1] Check that the DRYER AIR TUBES are in the correct positions.
[2] Remove any dirt from the DRYER AIR TUBES and from within the SLOTS in the DRYER AIR TUBES. Use a
BOTTLE BRUSH to clean the AIR TUBES. Rinse the AIR TUBES with water.
[3] Increase the DRYER TEMPERATURE, but always adjust the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL SETTING
to the lowest possible temperature that still allows good drying.
[4] Check that the DRYER AIR EXHAUST is free from any obstruction and is installed according to specifications
in the Installation Instructions.
[5] Check that the DRYER HEATER is operating.
[6] Check that the DRYER and EXIT ASSEMBLIES are correctly seated.
Wash Water Remedies
[1] Check that the wash water is flowing on the ROLLERS on the WASH RACK.
[2] Check that the holes in the CROSSOVER TROUGHS are open. Clean the holes if necessary, to prevent
overflow of the wash water and diluting of the developer and fixer.
