[comp.sys.dec.micro] P/OS hardware Error codes

tmiller@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu (Todd Miller) (04/13/91)

New Pro 350 owners are so worried about the error codes I have reproduced 
the most common ones here.  These are taken from the P/OS handbook.  Note
that unless you want to buy new components all you can do is reseat connections!


	Code  	Problem area		Corrective Action

	000100  P/OS keyboard handler   1: Check cables and connections
					2: Reseat option modules in card cage.
 					3: Reset all IC's in sockets on system
					   module.
					5: Replace system module
					6: Reload Operating system.

	000200 	Terminal driver         [deleted]

	000300  Executive/general	If error occured on first
					access of RX or RD subsystem,
					check that subsystem is in order:

					1: Check cables and reseat
					   controller in card cage
					2: Replace Drive
					3: Replace RX or RD subsystem
					   controller

					If error not found on first access
					of mass storage, goto 000200
					corrective action.

	000400	System startup
		processing

	000500 Terminal driver
