Muratec F-160 operating instructions Troubleshooting, Alarm, LCD error messages

Troubleshooting

Occasionally, your fax machine encounters some trouble transmitting or receiving documents. When it does, it alerts you with an alarm. You can identify the problem with LCD messages and printed check messages and error reports, explained in the following pages.

Alarm

Your fax machine sounds an alarm tone — a series of short beeps — if either of these two problems occur:

•Trouble transmitting or receiving

•The machine is out of paper

LCD error messages

What you see on the LCD	What it means/What to do
All Commands In Use	Your fax machine has all of its 99 possible
	delayed commands (automatic redialling counts
	as one) stored in memory and cannot accept
	another. Delete an existing command by using
	REVIEW COMMANDS, or wait until your fax has
	completed one of the delayed commands.
Already Stored	You tried to enter a blocked number or depart-
	ment code which is already entered in the
	blocked numbers list or department code list for
	your fax machine.
	Enter a different blocked number or department
	code.
Box In Use	You tried to erase an F-Code box which has
	received at least one document. Print the docu-
	ment(s), then try again.
Call For Service	The scanner lamp is dim or inoperable. Make
	repeated copies to help evaporate any internal
	moisture. If that doesn’t solve the problem, call
	your authorised Muratec dealer or Muratec
	Customer Support.
