After the supply voltage has been turned on, various tests are carried out to verify full operability of the P63x.

If the P63x detects a fault in one of the tests, then start-up is terminated.

The display shows which test was running when termination occurred.

No control actions may be carried out.

После подачи питания выполняются различные тесты для проверки

Никакие действия по управлению в этот момент невозможны.
