    [Dead] AA=dead fiery?

    I've got a IC-413 (Fiery E100 70-60C-KM) connected to a C6000 with about 63000 prints on it. The machine control panel initially displays a message that the "controller is not connected" and the LED on the fiery displays AA after starting up. I have replaced HDD and RAM but when i follow the service manual exactly and install system software via USB or LAN I get 02 on the LED display and it stays like that for more than an hour. Next step is to replace the mobo, has anyone seen and resolved this issue? Also, is there a list or chart depicting what the LED codes actually mean? I did a forum search for IC-413, the panel message, and the LED codes and got nothing, thanks in advance.

        Maybe it needs an "AA" battery?

        Sorry, that was just waaaaaay too easy.

                  i think, the problem was due to lack of proper shut down.

                  i hope u r shutting down controller, properly.
                  if not, try it.

                  go to controller on the control panel of the machine

                  and den
                  SHUTDOWN FIERY

                  den switch off sub power and den main power.

                    no it needs to go to an AA meeting, lol
                    Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.

                      Its an old thread but since ive done this thing A LOT of times i thought i could give some insight to some of the questions.AA mostly occurs when the controller is not properly shutted down(on machine panel Controller->Shut down Fiery) or in some times from power shortages!When you install the software over the old one it takes about 30 mins to complete then u have to shut down and restart(i even wrote a different manual for myself on how to do it cuz with sm sometimes it would still get stuck on AA).when u first open the machine it will run circles of numbers from 01 to 03 with 03 taking the longest,40mins sometimes(its decompressing the files u installed on it) which takes some time(in some machines it takes more time than others,dont rly know why.)I only had once an issue when it would still stay at AA after 3 hours of toying with it and i had to change the hd.Hope i helped anyone(and correct me if i said anything wrong lol ).
                      I don't like the new copier I just bought. It says "put face down" but every time I do it, it blinds my eyes.

                        Re: AA=dead fiery?

                        I just had this problem pop up today. I tried to reload system software from the disk that came with the fiery but i get a vbs script error right away. I also tried to load it to a thumb drive useing the USB utilite but it goes from 30 min to several hours then gives an error. I am pretty sure it is a bad file on the disk. Has any one else seen this with the disks that come with it? I ordered a new cd from Kmbs but it's on back order till the end of the month. Does any one know if I could get it directly from EFI? Thanks in advance.

                          most often the hdd on these fireys. best to find a good working unit and image the drive. if you replace the hdd and intend loading system code to it, make sure there are no partitions on it.

                            I have discovered that the problem loading the system software was with my laptop not the disk. In my case the AA is probably not a bad HDD because I can remote into the Fiery and windows has booted but the Fiery software is not loading. It had a message about a corrupt file.

                              There are 2 Fiery patches that can help with AA codes. Install them after you get it up and running.
