HC10825 — Alignment module horizontal home-position sensor S6 not connected or malfunctioning

Agfa CT error code, reported by the Alignment Module.

What HC10825 means

On DryStar 5500 (Type 5364/100) and DryStar 5503 (Type 5364/300) CT systems, status code HC10825 indicates: Alignment module horizontal home-position sensor S6 not connected or malfunctioning. The code originates in the Alignment Module — Home Position Sensors (S5/S6) section of the Alignment Module. Severity level alarm (Alarm).

Reported action: Check the connections to sensor S6, then connector P21 on the MEC board — reconnect or replace whichever isn't OK. If the connections are fine, check the wiring from S6 to MEC/P21 with a multimeter and fix it if faulty. If the wiring is good, power off the printer and replace S6; if the fault persists, the MEC board is defective and needs replacing..

Raised on the Drystar 5500/5503 when the alignment module's horizontal home-position sensor S6 is not connected or is malfunctioning. The printer shows "Call service". Filed alongside the equivalent vertical home-position code, HC10824, and the homing time-out code HC11208 that also involves S6.
