WARNING
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug
having a fuse of 5 AMP capacity. Should the fuse need to be replaced,
use a 5 AMP FUSE approved by ASTA to BS 1362, ie one that carries the
mark.
IF THE PLUG SUPPLIED WITH THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT SUITABLE
FOR THE OUTLET SOCKETS IN YOUR HOME, IT SHOULD BE CUT
OFF AND AN APPROPRIATE PLUG FITTED. THE PLUG SEVERED
FROM THE MAINS LEAD MUST BE DESTROYED AS A PLUG WITH
BARED WIRES IS DANGEROUS IF ENGAGED IN A LIVE OUTLET
SOCKET.
When an alternative type of plug is used it should be fitted with a 5 AMP
FUSE, otherwise the circuit should be protected by a 5 AMP FUSE at the
distribution board.

GE-1A SELF DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE
The identification of errors within the GE-1A chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the event
of one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with continuous flashing LED) and
then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be dis-
played through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted) See table 1., non fatal errors are reported using this method.

ERROR DETECTION MONITOR
Device acknowledge is used to check IIC errors. Device acknowledge is checked by sending an IIC start sequence during CRT power on. Each
device is checked three times, if there is no acknowledge after every attempt, it will be regarded as an error.
There are three steps to check errors
1. IIC line 0
If all devices except the NVM are errors, IIC line 0 error is displayed
2. Board check
If all devices mounted on one board have errors, board error is displayed
3. Each device check
If IIC line error and board error are not detected then the device with an error is displayed
The detected errors can be displayed as follows:
1. Error Monitor Menu
2. Error Reader
1. ERROR MONITOR MENU
The error monitor menu is displayed by selecting TT22. The following menu will be displayed:
ERROR MONITOR
Operating Time :
930360h 15h
Saved Errors :
1. 000h = B-Board
2. 000h = P87C654-Feature Box *B
3. 000h = no error occured
4. 000h = no error occured
5. 000h = no error occured
Actual Error :

Ignore Errors : [off]
To reset NVM press TT65

2. ERROR READER DISPLAY
The error reader display is connected to the service connector to read actual error codes. The part number for the error reader display is S-188-900-10.
Once an error has been detected it will then be displayed on the two digit error reader. The errors displayed refer to the following table :
