Abstract (en)

The system displays (70) an appropriate two digit fault code if a predetermined push button (132) on the operator keyboard is pressed while a status code is displayed. When the push button is released, the display (70) returns to the status code. The fault codes identify sources of malfunctions rather than status code remedies for efficient fault diagnosis and correction.
