Error Message:

CARRIAGE: LCA's not configured at startup

Applies to:

• All

Service Information:

A carriage command was attempted, but the carriage controller Xilinx LCA has not been loaded. This error should not occur on a properly configured recorder. All LCA's are loaded on startup as long as the correct firmware is installed on the firmware EPROM.

If this error is reported after the recorder has been operating normally, suspect that the ALE has developed a problem. It should be replaced.

If a firmware download has recently been performed, suspect that the download was not successful. Check that the correct file was downloaded. Verify with the "fw dir" command that all firmware components "PASS" and are "Loaded". In particular, check that there is an entry labelled "ALE LCA" and it "PASS"'es and is "Loaded". If not, the download was unsuccessful or the firmware file you are loading is incomplete or corrupted.

Operator Action:

Record error message and contact Creo service

Cause:

• Faulty ALE board
• Unsuccessful firmware download
• Corrupted or incomplete firmware file
