Thermal 2 Errorcode: [00208] The mode / state of the laser diode is invalid


Service Information	The beam-balance sensor subsystem will determine the state of the laser diode driver. This error indicates that the control mode or control state of the laser diode driver is invalid or an error occured accessing the laser diode driver.
	The control mode of the laser diode driver must be "Suspend", "Current" or "Simulate" and the control state of the laser diode driver must be "Suspend" or "Current". The only exception is the calculation of head power in the "Calibrate" mode which expects the control mode of the laser diode driver to be "Calibrate", "Monitor", "Current" or "Simulate" and does not require the control state of the laser diode driver to be settled.
	Enabling the error translation level for the beam-balance sensor subsystem will display the laser diode driver error ( if the error occured accessing the laser diode driver ).
Operator Action	Initialize the control mode of the laser diode driver and wait for the control state of the laser diode driver to settle.
Causes	The control mode or control state of the laser diode driver is invalid.

Possible cause		Normally occurs during troubleshooting, when turning on the laser by hand and `LVD` is not in local mode.

Suggested action		Set the correct state for `LDD`, `BPD` and `LVD`.
