Working with Fault Messages and Warnings
If CLARiTY
®
displays a fault or warning, perform the following:
• Read the fault or warning message.
• Follow the instructions according to the message.
• Clear the message from the display (sometimes the message clears
automatically when the fault is corrected, and sometimes you have to
clear it by touching the Clear button).
Reading a Fault Message or Warning
When a fault or warning occurs, CLARiTY
®
displays the fault message in
the status window at the top of all pages.
When a fault occurs, the printer’s fault output relay will open. If this relay
is wired into the packaging machine’s stop circuit, it can be used to ensure
that the packaging machine is stopped in the event of an error. This
prevents the uncoded product from being produced when the printer has
a fault.
