8. Status codes

8.1 Display

8.1-1 How it works

Paltronic 50 shows to different kinds of status codes:

a) Permanently shown (not flashing) codes. These codes do not contain an additional information, so the 2 digits afer the dot are “00” and therefore not shown.
b) Flashing codes. These codes contain of a main number and an additional information. To make a difference, the main number is shown with a dot (e.g. 63.), the
additional information without (e.g. 07).

8.1-2 Operating status – error code

Generally, there are normal operating status and error codes.

• Normal operating status codes are codes, which happen during normal operating. These codes are no errors, they just show a certain situation (e.g. an
overload situation). These codes appear and disappear automatically, a reset is not necessary.
• Normal operating status codes are shown with a ( * ) in the following description.

• Error codes are codes which show an unusual situation. They appear as soon as the problem happens and do not disappear automatically anymore. For
example, the code 63.04 shows, that a hand lever was not in neutral position during dart up. Even after bringing the lever back to neutral position, the code
does not disappear. The operator has to reset the system by either pressing the OLP button or restarting the system.
• Error codes are shown with a ( ** ) in the following description
