n.39 Set maximum fibre optic and Intracam bulb voltage for
selected hose type
This service mode can be used to fine adjust the maximum allowed fibre-optic light bulb
voltage for the selected hose type. The display shows four dashes (----) if no valid hose is
selected. When a hose (instrument) that contains a fibre-optic light is selected, the display
shows the setting for this hose type. The factory default is 170. Positive values increase,
negative decrease the factory default. Each step equals about 50mV. Determine the bulb
voltage by measuring it directly at the bulb socket when the bulb is on. Never exceed the
maximum allowed voltage.
Satelec Newtron LED: Set value to the maximum value = 170.
Note: The dental unit can be equipped with 2 or more scalers, but they must be of the
same type. Two different types of scaler can not be supported simultaneously.
Note: If the Satelec LED scaler is replaced by the Satelec Lux (halogen scaler) the service
mode value must be set to 0 (halogen light) while the Satelec LED is still attached to the
dental unit.
n.41 Set fibre optic light turn-off delay for all instruments
This service mode can be used to alter the turn-off delay for instruments with an internal
fibrelight. The factory default is 30 seconds.
n.49 Display test for Planmeca Compact i 2009 control panel. Not
applicable for touch panel.
This service mode is not applicable to the touch panel.
The service mode turns on all individual LEDs and display segments on the control
panel(s) (Planmeca Compact i 2009 control panel). Can be used to check that all displays
work properly, as well as to check the control panel for dead pixels. Shows also the
version number of the control panel software.

E11 OP-light fuse (F5) and/or Water heater fuse (F7) has blown on
the MCB
The conditions of the secondary fuses are indicated also by green LEDs at each fuse
holder position. Look at the inner side of the PCB edge. If a green LED is dark, then the
respective fuse at that position is blown. The following list gives more details about the
blown fuse. Remember to replace the fuse with the same type and rating indicated, to
guarantee safety of the equipment.
Always turn off the power during fuse replacement. If a fuse blows immediately again, try
to disconnect the respective load (OP-light, water heater, separator or syringe) to check
whether the load itself is causing the problem.
E12 SELV voltage too low (below 30V). Chair, instrument and
headrest control not allowed
SELV voltage outside acceptable range (below 30V or above 39V) Check first the mains
voltage at the input terminals on the MCB. If the error only occurs when running the patient
chair, check that the mains impedance is not too high so that the incoming mains voltage
does not drop under the minimum allowed. The following voltage variations are allowed to
guarantee normal operation;
• 230 volt setting (Europe) mains can be from 187VAC to 265VAC
• 115 volt setting (USA) mains can be from 98VAC to 132VAC
• 100 volt setting (Japan) mains can be from 80VAC to 110VAC
E42 Air coolant (spray air) control servo cannot maintain required
pressure
The proportional valve gets full power, but still the measured pressure does not reach the
required level. The most probable reason is that there is something reducing the air flow
so that the pressure cannot reach the required level even if the control valve is fully open.
Check for air tube kinks inside the unit and console arm. Check the condition of the
incoming air pressure regulator and also the air filter. Check that the incoming air pressure
is within recommendations. The control valve in the IMUX could also cause this problem.
Replace the valve as a last remedy.
E65 Lift motor does not run or no signal from position potentiometer
There can be several reasons for this error, but they can easily be divided into 3
categories to be more easily understood;
a) If the motor runs and the chair’s lift mechanism moves: The error must be in the
potentiometer, its cable or on the MCB. Visually check the condition of the potentiometer.
If the potentiometer’s axle is rotating together with the worm screw, then check the cable
from the potentiometer all the way to the MCB. Turn off the power and use and ohmmeter
to do the checking. If the potentiometer and its cable seem to be ok, you can additionally
check the reading from the potentiometer with the help of service mode n.76 that shows
the potentiometer signal on the unit display. Connect an external potentiometer directly to
the MCB and use the service mode to check that the MCB is OK.
b) The motor does not run, but there is a faint humming sound from the motor. Check that
the movement has not reached either of the mechanical limits. Is the chair overloaded
(>150 kg load)? Is there any other mechanical obstruction? Check that the motor capacitor
is properly connected and that the capacitor is OK. Check that the motor cable is OK (you
should be able to measure the resistance of both windings at the connector that connects
to the MCB).
c) The motor is completely dead. Is the motor very hot? It is possible to overheat the motor
if you run it continuously for more than about 2 minutes, or if the motor runs more that 13%
of the time. When the motor heats up, the built in over-temperature switch disconnects the
common wire, resulting in a temporarily dead motor. When the motor cools down (this can
take 10 - 20 min.) it returns back to normal operation. Check also the connector and
cables to the motor, if it is not overheated, but still dead.
CAUTION
Some of the service mode functions can be used to alter the operation of the unit.
Never use service modes whose operation you are not familiar with.
CAUTION
The chair lift mechanism can be driven at any time (even if the service door is open)
in the service mode. Make sure to remove tools and fingers from the mechanism
prior to running the chair from its controls.
You must enter a PIN-code to enter the service mode. The service mode number is shown
on the display and you can scroll through the service modes with the up and down buttons
on the control panel.
The main service mode window summarises the contents of the service mode. If it
contains much information, you can view the rest of the text by scrolling the window. A
more detailed description and possible instructions can be accessed by pressing the i-
symbol. The new window is closed by pressing OK.
NOTE
In the service mode, only service mode information (no error or help codes) is displayed on
the control panel.
NOTE
Even if listed in this manual, some service modes are reserved for future use and might not
yet be implemented in the current software version.

NOTE
To ensure that changes made in the service mode are stored, you must exit the service
mode by using the Program button. All altered settings, even if they have an immediate
effect, are lost if the power is turned off before pressing the Program button.
