HC10826 — Alignment module entry sensor S22 not connected or malfunctioning

Agfa CT error code, reported by the Alignment Module.

What HC10826 means

On DryStar 5500 (Type 5364/100) and DryStar 5503 (Type 5364/300) CT systems, status code HC10826 indicates: Alignment module entry sensor S22 not connected or malfunctioning. The code originates in the Alignment Module — Entry Sensor (S22) section of the Alignment Module. Severity level alarm (Alarm).

Reported action: Check the connections to sensor S22, then connector P21 on the MEC board — reconnect or replace whichever isn't OK. If the connections are fine, check the wiring from S22 to MEC/P21 with a multimeter and fix it if faulty. If the wiring is good, power off the printer and replace S22; if the fault persists, the MEC board is defective and needs replacing..

Raised on the Drystar 5500/5503 when the alignment module's alignment entry sensor S22 is not connected or is malfunctioning. The printer shows "Call service". Filed with the other S22-related codes that cover jam and timing conditions on the same sensor (HC11211, HC11213, HC11233, HC11234).
