Error Messages
In the event of critical or non-critical conditions that would prevent the proper operation of the
equipment, the exposure will be inhibited and an error message will be displayed on the Main
Control Panel (see page 15). When a fault occurs, a “EC” will be displayed in the mA display. The
appropriate error code number will be displayed in the kV display.
If there is an error with the 8500 system, the mA display will show “dE” and the kV display will be
blank. Exposure will be prevented. In this case conrm the network connection, and check the
status icons on the computer system tray. Take any actions indicated. Reset the system power
using the switch at the base of the column. If “dE” is still displayed after these actions, contact
your Gendex service branch.
If “do” is displayed in the mA window, the device is in demo mode. Pressing the Demo Mode button
will return the device to normal operation.
The error codes, type of fault, clearing method and equipment condition are listed in the following
