When the rotor levitates normally, the LCD displays "Levitation" and the STP pump can be
operated.

When the configuration (the STP pump serial number or the SCU-1600) is changed, a "CAUTION"
message is displayed on the LCD during the self test. Refer to Table 37 when "CAUTION" is other than
those in Table 7.
CAUTION message Causes
Coupling is Changed Connecting the same model but the different serial number of
the STP pump to the SCU-1600 after the tuning is performed.
Pump Type is Changed Connecting the different model of the STP pump to the
SCU-1600 after the tuning is performed.
Pump Type is Mismatch Using the different series of the STP pump with the SCU-1600
control unit. Use the specific control unit.
