EBME Forums Forums Maintenance Technical Assistance Styker 30L HighFlow Insufflator ERROR 01

Hello friends , I need an Urgent help ...
Just after calibrating the device, it works just fine, but when I turn it off for a few seconds and then turn it on again, the error 01 comes up again. The device doesn't keep the calibration.
I replaced the EEPROM 93CL56B ( In the CPU board ) by the EEPROM 93C56P that I bought in an Electronics Store, and another error happened ... I would like to know :
Is the new EEPROM compatible with the device, or is it not compatible?
Could I replace the bad EEPROM for a brand new one, bought in an electronics store? Or is the EEPROM 93CL56B factory recorded, and I couldn't replace for a Blank one?

Thanks a lot for your help !!!

The whole point of an eeprom is that it stores a program. If you replace it with a blank one you have lost everything on the original one.
Forgetting data sounds like a back up battery problem.
Have a look for a coin cell.
Or is the eeprom used as the data storage for just the cal data alone?

I'm afraid that I must concur there, Robert.

It seems that (yet again) folk may be forgetting Mr.Geoff's "First Rule of Fault-Finding" ... viz:-

Think Simple!

That is, always make sure the problem is not something like:-

1) Loose connection
2) Depleted battery
3) Blown fuse
4) Lack of mains power ... etc.

... before diving into the likes of U-123, IC-456 ... or even R-78!

And even then, the next step should always be to check that all power supply voltages are "there" (and at expected - sensible - values). And that includes battery voltage(s) - both off-load and (if possible) on-load.

In my experience, faults are very rarely due to failed "chips". And, even when the chips are, shall we say, fried, the primary fault is generally elsewhere (eg, failed component in the power supply - which can usually be detected by that most sensitive piece of test kit:- the Mark I Human Nose).

It doesn't have any battery, only EEPROMs. The question is... Does the original EEPROM loose its factory configuration by being removed from the board, and being replace by a Blank one?
What happens is that the device accepts the calibration... works for undetermined time, as long as it is turned on, but when I turn it off, and then turn it on again, it doesn't keep the calibration.

I can't find the datasheet for that specific device. But I should imagine that these are very similar.

Off the top of my head, I would have expected data to have been retained even if the chip was removed; but I'm now wondering if your EEPROM is having null (empty) data written to it. Just a thought.

BUDDY, YOU KNOW TELL THE SPECIFICATIONS OF TRANSFORMER (T1) BOARD CONNECTING THE XENON LAMP 300 LIGHT SOURCE WATS X7000 STRYKER?

In regards to your insufflator the Main PCB Board most likely requires replacement these are obsolete and most likely parts will be next to impossible to find.

Your question about the X7000 slightly confuses me, whats the issue that you are having?

Almost certainly not what you're looking for ... but an interesting source of information (.pdf) all the same.
