Fiscal Printer DATECS FP-2000 Version 3.10
E) IRRECOVERABLE ERROR IN THE FISCAL PRINTER
This is the status of the printer when a serious technical or logical mistake has occurred as well as in case of fiscal
memory failure. After switching ON the device in this mode a bold sign “FATAL ERROR: 4” appears. The printer
does not perform commands for opening fiscal receipts as well as documents, which save data entries into the fiscal
memory. Only diagnostic commands and periodic reports can be executed. Clearing the RAM and placing a new fiscal
memory module must be performed because the module used before the error is now switched to the READ ONLY
mode. ALL THESE OPERATIONS MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE SPECIALIST.
The events, which can bring the printer to this state, are:
- Impossibility to make a correct entry in the fiscal memory;
- Invalid control sum, tax number, serial number, reg. No. of the fiscal memory or some of the entries which
contain the tax rates.
- Unidentified format of the fiscal memory module;
- If during the fiscal memory check up (immediately after switch ON) more than three invalid control sums
from a daily report fiscal entry are found.
