Error Number

TEST 01 FAILED

Error Code System Message

TEST 01 FAILED - EPROM checksum failed

TEST 01 FAILED, EPROM checksum failed, AMX-4 TEST 01 FAILED, AMX-4+ TEST 01 FAILED, Definium AMX 700 TEST 01 FAILED, GE AMX error TEST 01 FAILED
Question

What does TEST 01 FAILED mean on a GE AMX-Series mobile X-ray?

Short Answer

TEST 01 FAILED: EPROM checksum failed.

Possible Causes

Program-memory checksum does not match expected firmware image. EPROM Check sum in calculated and compared with stored value. Error Code 81 Hex is recorded i nthe Error Log for a failure.

Troubleshooting Steps

Check EPROM/program memory and CPU/microprocessor integrity. Check EPROM and microprocessor if failure occurs.

Parts Areas to Check

CPU board; memory/timer/A-D circuitry identified by the test

Error Number

TEST 02 FAILED

Error Code System Message

TEST 02 FAILED - RAM battery test failed

TEST 02 FAILED, RAM battery test failed, AMX-4 TEST 02 FAILED, AMX-4+ TEST 02 FAILED, Definium AMX 700 TEST 02 FAILED, GE AMX error TEST 02 FAILED
Question

What does TEST 02 FAILED mean on a GE AMX-Series mobile X-ray?

Short Answer

TEST 02 FAILED: RAM battery test failed.

Possible Causes

Non-volatile RAM battery voltage/retention is below the expected condition. The first write to the RAM will not stored if the RAM battery is below 2.0 volts. The processor writes to RAM then reads the location. An error occurs if the value written is not the same as the value read. Error Code 82 Hex is recorded in the Error Log for a failure.

Troubleshooting Steps

Check RAM battery, RAM circuitry and CPU board. Check RAM and it's associated circuitry. Check the microprocessor. Replace RAM chips.

Parts Areas to Check
