system error E247 ? I have not attatched printer board

[mjarbar]

Error Code: E245, E246, E247, E354, E350, E355
Cause: Error with Serial Number PCB or Counter PCB or Main Controller PCB
Remarks: Please complete online form to order Controlled Parts via Dealer Net or Canon Intranet, and send to Information Management Group.

On an iR1600 the E247 code relates to a problem with either of the above three boards, which are a controlled parts from Canon with the exception of the main controller.

If you change any of the above boards the other two must come from the same machine as they each 'write' to each other to ensure everything matches up.

Given the age of these machines and the cost of the boards it would be cheaper to upgrade to a newer model like the iR2022 or iR1024!

As far as i remember this error is related whit the electronic counter of the machine. And iit is quite dificul to solve. Each machine has its own counter chip, and its not posibile to switch betwen the machines. You will have to contact the local dealer for more info, but i think it has something to doo whit the machine serial nember which is present in the nounter software.


P.S. I tried to switch the counters between two machine's whith no resolts.




Sorry for the bad english

[Zoren]

yes those two boards must match together..

unless, he must've switched the counter pcb to another machine. w/c is now inconsistent w/ the SRAM counter...

thanks

can we solve the problem without pcb change i.e. with the help of any software

[mjarbar]

Unfortunatlly no, the software these boards use are stored on non accesable ROM's on the boards themselves to stop unscrupulous company's from changing the counters and serial numbers.
