When a Transmitter is in an error state, the yellow or red LED flashes and the error is logged. The LEDs continue to flash until all logged errors have been cleared.

You can view the error coder from the Transmitter's LCD display main menu. There are six diagnostic error codes that identify the cause of the error occurring.

How to view diagnostic error code(s)

  • Move the selection arrow so that it's pointing to the Diagnostic Error Codes, then press the Display_R_Arrow.pngbutton once. Scroll to the entry that has a dot in front of it; which indicates that entry is the error.
