Fault Alerts
Three types of fault alerts may be displayed during or after milking:
o Outputs Alert – This alert indicates an overcurrent at one of the outputs
(meaning a device may be short-circuiting). Apparatus controlled by
AfiMilk MPC and their corresponding fault alerts are listed below.
The fault indication format is E01 alternating with Out# (# = number of output).
If an output alert appears, try pressing one of the keys of the control box. If the problem
persists OR if the alert appears again, the device needs to be replaced or fixed.

Out3 Vacuum Valve Solenoid
Out4 Pulsator Front

o Communication Fault – This fault alert indicates a momentary failure in
communication. The error display format for this fault is E 03 .
If a Communication Fault alert appears, try pressing one of the keys of the control box. If
the problem persists, OR if the alert appears again, you must replace the AfiMilk MPC
control box.
o Milk Dump Delay – AfiMilk MPC dumps the portions of milk into the milk
line. The design of AfiMilk MPC body allows fast discharge of the milk
when the valve is opened. Delays in milk discharge may cause
measurement inaccuracies alongside delays in removal. Error messages E
02 and E02F indicates milk discharge delay.
