What to do if Fuji Electric Control Panel shows 'Communication Error: Time-Out'?
- C
  Charles MclaughlinAug 20, 2025
  If the Fuji Electric Control Panel displays a 'Communication Error: Time-Out' message, it could be due to several reasons. First, check the cable connections to ensure they are correctly connected and not disconnected. Second, verify the parameter settings in the controller, ensuring they match the V9-series settings. Third, if the error occurs suddenly during normal communication, noise might be disrupting the data. In this case, ensure appropriate measures are taken against noise, such as checking if communication cables are bundled with power cables, attaching a ferrite core to the communication cable, or attaching a noise filter to the power supply. If none of these steps resolve the issue, the MONITOUCH may be faulty.

What to do if Fuji Electric Control Panel shows 'Communication Error: Error Code received'?
- J
  Jasmine CarlsonAug 22, 2025
  If the Fuji Electric Control Panel displays a 'Communication Error: Error Code received' message, it indicates a controller error (NAK). If the error appears only on a specific screen, it may be due to a device memory address that does not exist on the controller being set on the V9-series screen. In this case, check if any address outside the permissible range of the controller device memory is specified on the screen. If the error appears at power-on, a device memory address that doesn't exist in the controller might be specified for an area commonly used by all screens, such as a control area, logging server, alarm server, or initial macro. Check if any address outside the permissible range of the controller device memory is specified for these areas.

Why is my Fuji Electric Control Panel screen dark or black?
- K
  Kelsey LambertAug 25, 2025
  There are a couple of reasons why the screen on your Fuji Electric Control Panel might be dark or black. If touching the screen restores it, the backlight is operating automatically as preset; in this case, you may want to change the time to turn off the backlight using V-SFT version 6 or on the V9 series unit. However, if touching the screen does not restore it, but the POWER lamp is lit, the backlight may be at the end of its life, or the MONITOUCH unit may be faulty.

Why does my Fuji Electric Control Panel show 'Communication Error: Parity' or 'Communication Error: Framing'?
- K
  kennethscottAug 27, 2025
  If your Fuji Electric Control Panel suddenly displays 'Communication Error: Parity' or 'Communication Error: Framing' after successful communications, noise may be the cause. Check if appropriate measures are taken against noise. For example, ensure communication cables are not bundled together with power cables, try attaching a ferrite core to the communication cable, or try attaching a noise filter to the power supply.

How to troubleshoot screen program transfer failure on Fuji Electric Control Panel?
- G
  Gloria WatsonAug 28, 2025
  If you're having trouble transferring the screen program to your Fuji Electric Control Panel, consider these points. If serial transfer has never been successful, there might be errors in the settings on your PC; in the [Transfer] window on V-SFT version 6, decrease the baud rate by one level and check that the correct COM port is selected. If only serial transfer is successful, there may be errors in the Ethernet or USB settings. For Ethernet transfer, check that the IP address set on V-SFT version 6 is the same as the one set on MONITOUCH, and check for any Ethernet connection errors on MONITOUCH. For USB transfer, ensure the USB driver is identified and the driver installation is successful.

What to do if switches on Fuji Electric Control Panel do not work?
- E
  Elizabeth BurgessAug 30, 2025
  If the switches on your Fuji Electric Control Panel are not working, consider these possibilities. If the switches don't work in RUN mode and a beep sounds, the switch interlock may be enabled, or the switch settings may be incorrect; check the settings of switch functions on V-SFT version 6. If the switch activation position is wrong, perform a touch switch adjustment. If switches do not work even in Local mode, the MONITOUCH switches may be faulty.

Why is the storage device not recognized on my Fuji Electric V9 Control Panel?
- B
  Brandy EdwardsSep 1, 2025
  The storage device may not be recognized on your Fuji Electric V9 series unit for a few reasons. First, the format type of the storage device might be different; the V9 series supports FAT or FAT32 format. Check the format type on your PC and reformat if necessary. Second, an error code might be stored in $s497 ($s1035 when the USB-A port is used); check the value stored in system device memory $s497 or $s1035—a value other than “0” indicates an error. Finally, the storage device itself might be faulty; check whether the storage device can be accessed from your PC, and try another storage device if necessary.

What to do if Fuji Electric Control Panel displays 'Communication Error: Simulator: Time-Out'?
- A
  Alexa MccoySep 3, 2025
  If the Fuji Electric Control Panel displays a 'Communication Error: Simulator: Time-Out' message, it means simulator communications between V9 and PC is not successful. If communicating with a PLC, select '[Not use]' on the Simulator Setting screen in Local mode, or deselect the [Use Simulator] checkbox on the [Transfer] window of V-SFT version 6 and transfer the screen program again. If communicating with a simulator, select the [Use Simulator] checkbox on the Simulator Setting screen in Local mode, or select [Transfer] ? [Simulate] in V-SFT version 6 to start the simulator.

Why can't I display the system menu in RUN mode on my Fuji Electric Control Panel?
- M
  margaretmcculloughSep 5, 2025
  The reason you can't display the system menu in RUN mode on your Fuji Electric Control Panel depends on the model. For Advanced models, it may be because switches, data display parts with switches, display areas, slider switches, scroll bars, table data display parts, or the display area of a scrolling message part are placed in the corners of the screen. Be sure to press a corner where none of these items are placed. If items are placed in all four corners, switch to a screen with open corners. For Standard/Lite models, the [SYSTEM] switch may be prohibited; to enable it, hold down the [F7] switch with the [SYSTEM] switch for the time specified for [Change-over Time] (max. 30 seconds), which is set in the screen program.

What does 'Insert Storage in V9' mean on Fuji Electric Control Panel?
- T
  Tracy MillerSep 7, 2025
  The message 'Insert Storage in V9' on your Fuji Electric Control Panel indicates that no storage device is inserted in the V9 series unit, even though a setting is enabled to automatically upload a screen program from the storage device when the unit is powered on. If you intend to enable auto-upload, ensure the storage device is correctly inserted and that the data files to be uploaded automatically are stored on the device. If you do not want to use auto-upload, turn off the V9 series unit and set the DIP switch 1 (on the back of the unit) to the off position.
