Troubleshooting Tips
When correcting errors, it is a good idea to perform the following:
· · · · · · ·

Always power OFF the 150i. Load the Input Hopper if the card stock is low. Clear any rejected cards from the Reject Tray. Replace the foil in the Topper Module if it is getting low. Replace the Indent Ribbon if it is getting low. Make sure the Top Cover is closed and locked. Output Hopper door is fully closed.

Use these tips to correct the following general problems. If A Card Is Loose In The 150i
· ·

Check the inside of the 150i for cards that may have fallen from the Card Transport module. Remove the cards and attempt to resume printing.

If A Card Is Jammed In The Input Hopper
· ·

Remove any jammed cards from the Input Hopper module by pulling cards from the back of the Input Hopper through the card throat. Attempt to resume printing.

If A Card Is Jammed In The Embosser Module
· ·

Remove any jammed cards from the Embosser module. Attempt to resume printing.

If A Card Is Jammed In The Topper Module
· ·

Remove any jammed cards from the Topper module. Attempt to resume printing.

If A Card Is Jammed In The Front Or Rear Indent Module
· ·

Remove any jammed cards from the front or rear Indent module. Attempt to resume printing.

If A Card Is Jammed In The Smart Card Module
· ·

Remove any jammed cards from the Smart Card module. Attempt to resume printing. When removing jammed cards from the 150i, care must be taken not to damage components.

Prerequisite Skills
Anyone troubleshooting the 150i system should possess the following skills:
·

Proficiency in CE communications setup as covered in the Datacard Network Connectivity Handbook.

Diagnostic Routines
The 150i software offers a number of diagnostic routines that test and exercise various components in the 150i. These diagnostics can be used to verify proper operation or to detect a point of failure.

Start Diagnostic Routines
To select the diagnostic programs on the 150i front panel, do the following: 1. Press *#3253 on the front keypad. 2. Press 2 (Diagnose) to select the diagnostic control application. 3. The system will reboot and go into the diagnostics mode. After a short pause, the 150i front panel will display the following message: 150i Diags Rev X.XX Service 4. To select the front panel options, press the # (pound) key. After a short pause, the 150i front panel displays the following message: Loading Onboard Diags Please wait... The main menu appears. When running diagnostics from the front panel, the 150i system is in the off-line mode. The keypad is used to navigate through the menus as they are displayed on the front panel of the 150i system.

Sensors
This diagnostic test is used to test all the photocells and switches on the 150i system. The test returns a status word on the front panel display. This test will indicate if a photocell or a switch is opened or closed. The test reads a hardware status port. Some of the signals for open or closed may be inverted. Check whether a photocell or switch has changed states. The example below shows the sensor value and their bit location.

· · ·

The test will require a Smart Card placed in the Input Hopper. A card will then stop at the Smart Card head location and the program head solenoid will fire. The test will then communicate to the Smart Card board application and reset the diagnostic. One of the following status messages is returned.

Table 5-4 : Smart Card Test Messages
Smart Card Messages Smart Card Comm Error Description Comm failure to Smart Card board. Check cables and see if application is running in the Smart Card system. No errors. Chip card is communicating to the program head. Card time-out error. The Smart Card chip card is not communicating. Failure could be the card, not enough pressure on the head or the card is not aligned correctly to the program head.

Card OK (Answer to Reset) Card Not Responding Not an ISO 7816 reset

This test will not test the Key Card readers. (Run an online application to test.) A Smart Card application for the 150i System needs to be loaded.

Identifying Errors Using Error Codes
When the Error indicator is illuminated, an Administrator Recoverable Error has occurred. An Error Code is displayed on the 150i display. Use the following Error Code list to identify and repair the error. Errors detected by the 150i firmware are reported as 16-bit values. These values consist of three basic parts: 1. Which module reported the error. 2. When was the error reported, and 3. Which device reported the error and why. For clarity, the error codes are grouped as xx-yy-zz. Once an error coded is displayed, it can be deciphered to give the operator and service personal a clear understanding on exactly what happened, when it happened, and the offending module. For example: the 150i displays the error PK 0826:
· · ·

PK (xx) tells the operator that an error occurred while the pick mechanism was being accessed. 08 (yy) tells the operator that the interlock was detected. 26 (zz) tells the operator that the interlock was opened unexpectedly

So, PK 0826 tells the operator that while the 150i was attempting to pick a card, the interlock was opened.

Group xx
This group identifies which module reported the error, but not necessarily which module was at fault.
