Folks,
We've got 3 of these things in for repair and we're a bit stuffed without
troubleshooting docs. The userguide is on the web but it's as useless as
this - *holds up useless thing* - and we need the means of interpreting
some of the hex codes they're chucking at us.
Anyone got any other docs?
TIA

In my *extrememly* limited experience, all the codes mean
"the flipping leader's come off - put it back on".
Anyone got any other docs?
I did make the TZ87 (or TZ877?) service manual available and
Manx will find it. The above comment applies here too :-)

These libraries are either extremely confused or extremely knackered; it
seems like they never do an actual hardware reset at powerup, just carry on
where they left off. I've found some button combinations that allow you to
view diagnostics as long as the robot isn't going nuts (rare) but I haven't
found which button actually selects said test or function. Also, 2 of them
don't open the drive door when expected so the tape bounces off repeatedly
until the robot gives up....
