Possible Causes
Corrupted firmware, Failed EEPROM chip on main PCB, Voltage spike damage, Manufacturing defect in control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect from mains before opening the unit. Firmware and EEPROM issues generally require board-level service.
Steps:
- Power cycle: Unplug the unit for 15 minutes, then reconnect. Sometimes a full reset clears transient memory errors.
- Check power quality: Ensure the outlet is properly grounded and not shared with heavy inductive loads (e.g., compressors, welders) that can cause spikes.
- Surge protection: Use a quality surge protector to prevent future EEPROM damage.
- Board replacement: If E9 persists, the main PCB (with EEPROM) is likely defective. Replace the main control board with an original Trotec spare. This is typically a technician-level repair.
