What is Agfa CT error code HC11222?

Sheet fails to reach the sorter unit (sorter entry sensor S25 not detected). It is reported by the MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module on DryStar 5500 and DryStar 5503 CT systems. Severity: Alarm; subsystem: MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module — Handoff to Sorter.

What should a field engineer do about HC11222?

Clear the output jam and check the takeover mechanism (motor M9) that transports the film from the print head toward the sorter unit; also check sensor S25 and its wiring.. Isolate the MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module — Handoff to Sorter subsystem and follow the status-code troubleshooting in the service manual. FSELIB documents the full diagnosis and remedy for the DryStar 5500 / DryStar 5503.

HC11222 — Sheet fails to reach the sorter unit (sorter entry sensor S25 not detected)

Agfa CT error code, reported by the MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module.

What HC11222 means

On DryStar 5500 and DryStar 5503 CT systems, status code HC11222 indicates: Sheet fails to reach the sorter unit (sorter entry sensor S25 not detected). The code originates in the MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module — Handoff to Sorter section of the MDM (Macrodensitometer) Module. Severity level alarm (Alarm).

Reported action: Clear the output jam and check the takeover mechanism (motor M9) that transports the film from the print head toward the sorter unit; also check sensor S25 and its wiring..

Raised on the DryStar 5500/5503 when the printer fails to pass a sheet on to the sorter unit — sorter entry sensor S25 is not reached. The printer shows "Remove output jam". Filed with the other MDM/densitometer fault codes (HC10200, HC10819-HC10820, HC10904-HC10905, HC10920, HC11005, HC11110-HC11115, HC11124, HC11218-HC11222).
