How to Read or Erase Fault Messages With the DRBII

To read fault messages:

When the A-604 MENU screen is displayed, select 2) READ FAULTS.

- If there are no fault messages, the display will read as follows:

A-604 FAULTS
NO FAULTS DETECTED
RESET COUNT = XXX

- If there are fault messages, the display will read as follows:

1 OF 3 FAULTS
[fault code & message appear here]
RESET COUNT = XXX

NOTE: The exact numbers displayed will vary depending on how many faults there are and how many starts there have been.

To read more than one fault message, press the down arrow to display the next message. All messages must have been "read" (that is, displayed) before the fault messages can be erased.

To erase fault messages:

A. After all faults have been read, press ATM. The display will change to read as follows:

----ERASE----
1) DON'T ERASE
2) ERASE

B. Select 2) ERASE. The display will change to read as follows:

ERASE FAULTS
ARE YOU SURE?
(ENTER TO ERASE)

C. Press ENTER to erase all faults. The display will change to read as follows: ERASE FAULTS

FAULTS ERASED

This display will remain until ATM is pressed. After ATM is pressed, the display will return to the A-604 MENU screen.
