[SPBE]

I have a c252 with an fs514 throwing a c 1183. but the image on the display shows that there are 3 output trays when there are only 2. Has anyone ever seen this?

FS514, error code SC1183.
Solution
CAUSE: PC11 sensor is not functioning......Replace PC11 !!

The trays have gone past the upper limit sensor. You must lower the trays by hand to make the code go away. Take off rear cover of finisher and you can pull the motor away to lower the tray. Keep upward pressure on trays as you pull motor away or you will hear loud bang. If it happens again, I would check sensor for sure.

As mo0651 said.

Subject:
FS-514, C1183 (C-1183) error code.
Description:
FS-514, C1183.
Solution:
PROBABLE CAUSES:
1. Incorrect tray positioning.
Remove upper and/or lower tray and remount to correct position.

2. The ground wire and the 2 red wires for the sorter door interlock switch are not properly seated.
Inspect the harness and connector for problems with a poor/no connection. Reseat the connection for the door interlock and properly position in the harness.

3. Accessories improperly installed. Error code will occur when outputting paper to Tray 3 because the lower adjust plate may not be in the correct position.
Check for correct installation when only OT-601, SD-503 or MT-501 is mounted and when OT-601 + SD-503 or OT-601 + MT-501 are mounted.
Position the lower adjust plate in the correct position according to the attached OT-601 Installation Manual. The proper placement of the adjust plate is shown on page E-3, Section III. Installation procedures (if Mailbin Kit/Saddle Stitcher is mounted) are in figure labeled 9J06IXC129DB. To view the PDF, Adobe Reader® must be installed.

4. Finisher may not be level.
Verify that the finisher is level to the main body.

5. Timing abnormalities. If an elevator tray starts to move up when paper is close to the upper position in the tray, trouble code C-1183 might occur because of the upper limit sensor chattering.
There is firmware to help eliminate timing problems. The timer is changed from 100ms to 180ms. The firmware is available via the Konica Minolta Download Selector. Access the Selector from SSD Web Support (CS Expert Support) by clicking on 'Download MSDS, Drivers, Firmware and more'.
IMPORTANT: Firmware version 07 (9J08-F050-G00-07-000 CHECKSUM-6881 Finisher.EXE)
is for the bizhub C300/C352/C352P and version CBF-00-007 (4038-F050-CBF-00-007(00) CHECKSUM-A599.EXE) is only for the bizhub C252/C252P.
Note: Concerning the above 5 issues, please refer to the attached "C1183 Check" document for additional detail. To view the PDF, Adobe Reader® must be installed. Adobe Reader® can be downloaded for free from the Adobe® web site at: Adobe - Adobe Reader download - All versions (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html).

6. Finisher overdriving downward. PC11 home position sensor is not functioning.
Replace home position sensor (p/n 4037 0905 01) and adjust white actuator of rear side belt (p/n 4349 2046 02).

7. Firmware upgrade is suggested along with system settings changes.
The following settings can prevent C-1183 errors. The settings are under “Administrator setting” => “System Setting”.


Set “OFF” for “Sleep Mode Setting”.
Set “OFF” for “Weekly Timer ON/OFF Setting”.
Set “OFF” for “Select Time for Power Save”.

or


Set “Sleep” on “Power Save Key”.
Set “OFF” on “Weekly Timer ON/OFF Setting”.
Set “OFF” on “Select Time for Power Save”.

Update to the following special firmware for both of Main body and Finisher and set “01” for
“Switch No.29” on “Software Switch Setting” so that the finisher does not make a stopped position reset.
<Main body firmware>
bizhub C352: Version GCy-G4 (20060914 9J06-F000-GCy-G4-000(00) CHECKSUM-1EBD.EXE) or greater
bizhub C300: Version GCy-G6 (20060914 9J06-F000-GCy-G6-000(00) CHECKSUM-BA1A.EXE) or greater
bizhub C252: Version CBF-00 (4038-F050-CBF-00-005(00)_CHECKSUM-0590.EXE) or greater
<Finisher firmware>
Version G00-07 (9J08-F050-G00-07-000_CHECKSUM-3EA8_Finisher.EXE)
<Procedure>
a. Change “HEX Assignment” of “Switch No.29” to “01” (Initial setting is “00”)
b. “Service mode” => “System2” => “Software Switch Setting”
c. Set “Tray1” for all output on “Output setting” => “Output Tray setting”.

8. There is an inconsistency in the firmware that can cause a C-1183 code to be generated when the MFP wakes from power management mode. Usually this issue is indicated when the FS-514 finisher is installed ONLY on the bizhub C352/C352P.
Please install bizhub C352/C352P Special Firmware version GWB-K0. This firmware resolves the issue of C-1183 when FS-514 is attached. The firmware for this update is available via the Konica Minolta Download Selector.
