Errors tab

The Errors tab lists preset errors detected by the CCS.

If there are no preset errors, the tab is labeled No Errors. If there are preset errors
present in the current CCS preset list, the tab is labeled X Errors, where X is the total
number of errors found in all loaded pre-sets.

To correct a preset error:

In the

Errors

tab, double-click the error description. CCS

displays the corresponding location in the preset’s properties list.

Errors in custom presets

When you customize a preset, CCS generally provides only valid options for various
parameters. It’s still possible to set conflicting values, however, so CCS checks all
changes to make certain no safety rules are violated.

Note:

If the CCS detects any preset Errors, it will not allow those presets to be

loaded into the PowerLab. The Update button will remain “grayed-out” until
the errors are corrected.

Over time, new CCS versions and new factory default presets will be released. These
changes may correct safety violations or provide enhanced capabilities that would cause
older presets to contain errors when running in newer firmware or CCS software. This
procedure enables you to update your custom presets as well as the firmware:

1. Back up your custom presets one at a time using the File > Save Preset X to File

command.

2. Update the firmware (see instructions for the

Firmware tab

).

3. Perform a factory restore (see instructions for the

Firmware tab

).

4. Restore custom presets one at a time using the File > Open File to Preset X

command.

5. Check

the

Errors

tab to see whether any of the old presets cause an error in the new

CCS/firmware. Double-click each error and correct the problem.

6. Re-save your custom presets one at a time using the File > Save Preset X to File

command.
