CALCULATED MAX PUMP VOLTAGE TOO HIGH 
REASON:  

Pump voltage needed for full throttle operation exceeds preset limit (Menu 1.6) 

CAUSE: 

The max pump voltage has been set too low,  the corrective factor has been set 

too high (Menu 9.6), pump voltage at calibration RPMS is too high (Points towards a fuel 
feed or turbine problem) -> User error 
 
 
ERROR MESSAGE DURING OPERATION 
 
THROTTLE CHANNEL FAILURE 
REASON:  

During operation the throttle channel seized 

CAUSE: 

PPM transmitter glitch 

 
RPM SENSOR FAILURE 
REASON:  

RPM sensor failure 

CAUSE: 

Ambient light interferes 

 
MAX RPM EXCEEDED 
REASON:  

The set max RPM has been exceeded 

CAUSE: 

Set wrong by user / Ambient light interferes with RPM sensor -> User error 

 
MIN RPM UNDER-RUN 
REASON:  

The set min RPM has been under-run 

CAUSE: 

Set wrong by user / Ambient light interferes with RPM sensor, fuel feed 

problem -> User error 
 
MAX. TEMP EXCEEDED 
REASON:  

The max temp of 800°C has been exceeded 

CAUSE: 

The main cause of overheating is mechanical failure -> User error 

 
FLAMEOUT DURING OPERATION 
REASON:  

Temperature has dropped below 250°C. 

CAUSE: 

Throttle curve to steep/fast, bubble in fuel feed, fuel tank empty -> User error 

 
FAIL SAFE 
REASON:  

The receivers failsafe duration exceed limits set in Men Fail Safe Timeout (3.4) 

when in Failsafe Modus 
CAUSE: 

Receiver glitch/ malfunction
