Howdy,

That problem can be caused by several things. If it happens on start-up it usually means the scanner and backend are not communicating. One of the most common causes is a loose or damaged Token Ring cable. It can also be caused by one of the assemblies that the cable connects to, the Signal Processor board in the front end and the PC Display Processor in the backend. A failing hard drive or corrupted software sometimes is a cause, or a power supply problem.

You can check the power supply voltages by removing the right side cover. There are LEDs on the power supply at the rear of the system. All should be on and green after the system is turned on. If you need more help, you can contact our technical support team directly.

Best regards,

Hi, this error message can has several options.

First need check voltages on power supply, if any voltage exceeds or below normal then the unit may give such error

 It can also overheat, need clean system and change termal grace on PC processor. Sometimes helped reinstall sw.

Last problem which I had problem with SPB (signal processing board), to check it need to change.

HD11 it is difficult ultrasound, the error can have many reasons. Even a service test will not show you exactly the problem.

Good luck!

90% when I made test I have PASS. Only if you have problem with board, you will have error, but not always.
