MSC ERROR CODES
If there is a malfunction, the MSC system sends a code, corresponding to the error
detected by the base unit MSC-CB, to the software EUCHNER Safety Designer.
The code can be read as follows:
- Connect the base unit MSC-CB (that is indicating the error) to the PC using the USB ca-
ble;
- Start the software EUCHNER Safety Designer (SWSD);
- Establish the connection using the button; a window appears with the password prompt;
type the password; a window appears with the error code acquired.
All possible errors with the corresponding solution are listed in the following.
The two microcontrollers MSC-CB
do not have the same hard-
ware/software configuration
CHECK MSC-CB AND MSCB PLUG CONNECTORS ON THE
EXPANSION MODULES FOR CORRECT SEATING. REPLACE
PLUG CONNECTORS IF NECESSARY.
Two or more expansion modules with
the same node number
CHECK CONNECTIONS – PIN 2, 3 ON THE EXPANSION
MODULES
Maximum number of expansion mod-
ules exceeded
REMOVE EXCESS MODULES (MAX. 14)
A change in the node number has been
detected on one or more modules
CHECK CONNECTIONS – PIN 2, 3 ON THE EXPANSION
MODULES
An external error has been detected on
an expansion module
