2 Power-On Self Test (Boot Check)
Outline of POST
The set has a boot check function called POST (Power-On Self Test) in it. The condition of the main body is diagnosed by checking
beep sound or error code.
Start .............Test begins automatically when power switch is set to ON.
Normal finish .....After memory checking, a beep sound is issued once and the set is placed into automatic stop.
Note: If no error occurs, nothing is displayed. (No display of OK, etc.)
Error Diagnosis by Checking Beep Signal Sound
The beep sound is as follows:
= long sound (about 0.4 sec.), = short sound (about 0.2 sec.), Length between sounds is about 0.1 sec.

3. List of Error Codes <Only when the port replicator is connected>
The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST.
Some of them display information about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory
installed. Others may indicate a problem with a device, such as the way it has been configured.
Following the list are explanations of the messages and remedies for reported problems.
If your system displays one of except the messages marked below with an asterisk (*), write
down the message and contact Panasonic Technical Support. If your system fails after you make
changes in the Setup menus, reset the computer, enter Setup and install Setup defaults or correct
the error.
0200 Failure Fixed Disk
Fixed disk in not working or not configured properly. Check to see if fixed disk is attached
properly. Run Setup. Find out if the fixed-disk type is correctly identified.
0210 Stuck key
Stuck key on keyboard.
0211 Keyboard error
Keyboard not working.
0212 Keyboard Controller Failed
Keyboard controller failed test. May require replacing keyboard controller.
0213 Keyboard locked - Unlock key switch

0250 System battery is dead - Replace and run SETUP
The CMOS clock battery indicator shows the battery is dead. Replace the battery and run
Setup to reconfigure the system.
*0251 System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used
System CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application
program that changes data stored in CMOS. The BIOS installed Default SETUP Values.
If you do not want these values, enter Setup and enter your own values. If the error persists,
check the system battery or contact Panasonic Technical Support.
0260 System timer error
The timer test failed. Requires repair of system board.
0270 Real time clock error

*0280 Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used
Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads default values and offers to run
Setup. If the failure was caused by incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot
will likely fail. On systems with control of wait states, improper Setup settings can also
terminate POST and cause this error on the next boot. Run Setup and verify that the
wait-state configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next time the system is booted.
