-CON2 of the SOL substrate or CON1 of the TE substrate is not inserted firmly. -Communication cable of the TE substrate is disconnected -Output terminal and 24V terminal on the TE substrate is short-circuited. -There is a trouble at electromagnetic valve etc. which is connected with TE substrate. -Total output current of the TE substrate is over rating value.
E-077
TE substrate 24V power supply error
-24V power supply is not supplied to the TE substrate.
E-078
Dynamic braking resistor over load
-24V power supply voltage is decrease. -The inertia of the sewing machine ( pulley etc.) is too large. -Power supply voltage is too high than the power supply specification.
error E-080
PMD substrate 12V voltage decrease error
E-081
E-082
XC-B substrate 12v voltage decrease error USB medium overcurrent
-External 12V power is short-circuited or decrease by the trouble of the operation panel. -External 12V power is short-circuited or decrease by the trouble of the SOL substrate or the halt switch lamp. -Internal 12V power is decrease or short-circuited by trouble in the CPU substrate or the DISP substrate. -Internal 12V power is decrease or short-circuited by trouble in the XC-B substrate. -USB MEDIUM IS OUT OF ORDER -NON-STANDARD USB MEDIUM BEING USED.

INSPECTION -Check the insertion of the connector. -Check the X-axis home sensor signal by using IN/OUT setting mode. -Check the insertion of the connector. -Check the Y-axis home sensor signal by using IN/OUT setting mode. -Check the insertion of the connector. -Check the PF-axis home sensor signal by using IN/OUT setting mode. -Please exchange PMD board. -Please consult the sewing machine agent. -Please exchange PMD board. -Please consult the sewing machine agent. -Please exchange PMD board. -Please consult the sewing machine agent. -Please exchange PMD board. -Please consult the sewing machine agent. -Check the wiring of the X and Y motor. -Check the sewing machine. -Check the wiring of the X motor. -Check the sewing machine. -Check the wiring of the Y motor. -Check the sewing machine. -Check the wiring of the PF motor.
-Check power supply voltage. -Insert connecters ( CON2 of the SOL substrate or CON1 of the TE substrate) firmly. -Exchange communication cable of TE substrate. -Check output wiring from TE substrate. And remove short-circuited point. -Exchange electromagnetic valve which is connected to TE substrate. -Use with below the rating current value. For example, decrease number of output, change to output device with low current value, shift on timing of each output, change setting of the full wave on time to smaller or zero. -Check the connection of the 24V connector of the TE substrate. -Exchange the fuse of the TE substrate. -Check voltage of the power supply origin. -Lengthened deceleration time at the machine stop. -Check power supply voltage. -Remove faulty point and exchange F2 fuse on the CPU substrate.
-Remove faulty point and exchange F1 fuse on the CPU substrate.
-CHECK USB MEDIUM （REFFER P.[5]-1 FOR USB MEDIUM
