What the system does when it encounters an error depends on
how you’ve set the
Halt
on
option in the SETUP program.
(See Chapter 2 of the
Setup Guide
for instructions on using the
SETUP program.) With this option, you can tell the computer to
halt system initialization when it detects the following types of
errors:
Q
All errors
CL
All errors, except diskette drive and keyboard errors
0
All errors, except diskette drive errors
0
All errors, except keyboard errors
0
No errors.
If the system detects an error you’ve told it to ignore through
the SETUP program, system initialization begins as though the
system had not detected an error.
When the system detects an error that isn’t serious, such as an
incorrectly defined diskette drive, you see the error message
and the following prompt:
Press Fl to continue or Del to start SETUP
Write down the error message and press
CT]
to continue.
If the system detects a serious error or an error you’ve
identified as a “halt on” error, the computer cancels further
checking and halts system initialization. The error message
remains on the screen and the computer locks up. If this
happens, see “The Computer Won’t Start” in this chapter. If
none of the suggestions listed there solves the problem, contact
your Authorized Epson Servicer as soon as possible. Report
any error messages when you request technical assistance.
