Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
System error shown in the data-injection display
HighSymptoms: Error message in the eyepiece data injection, function inhibited.
Root cause: An internal subsystem fault - acknowledge via the right-handgrip pushbutton or touchscreen; if it will not clear, service is required.
