7) Get Service Codes From the
Flashing STO Light.
• Count flashes on the STO light. This
is done the same way as in Self-Test
Part 2. (Ignore any flashes lasting
longer than 1 second.)
Code 12 looks like:
❊
PAUSE
FLASH (pause) FLASH FLASH
(FLASH = 1, FLASH FLASH = 2.
(Put 1 and 2 together = code 12.)
• All codes are 2 digits long.
• After all codes are sent, the whole
group is sent again just one more
time (so you can double check your
code list).
Example of code series 12 and 42:
❊
PAUSE
FLASH (pause) FLASH FLASH
(longer pause)
❊❊❊❊
FLASH FLASH FLASH FLASH (pause)
FLASH FLASH
