please keep my 8003 in your prayers. she went down today with an E-60 error. she has been my loyal companion since 2004. i have made many a mortgage payment with her. i only hope it is a wiring issue or a short or some other non fatal malady.
godspeed dear 8003, godspeed
Dunno bout a 8003, but on a Topcon GTS-3b:
"E-60 = Displayed when battery power is insufficient for EDM. Charge or replace the battery. Repair is necessry if the error still exists."
How new are your batteries?
I hope that is the ONLY problem,
Loyal
Same here, dunno about the 8000 series, but my 1003 says "an abnormality occurs with EDM (distance measuring system)" "Repair is required"

yeah that is the same thing my manual says. i hope it something as simple like a dead battery but i'm not sure it will be that easy. fingers crossed!
Snoop,
Fully charge the batteries, and give her another try. My 8005A does the same thing when the batteries get really low. I swap external batteries, and restart the robot, and she generally runs fine.
I know exactly how you are feeling, it's scary to have your bread and butter acting up.
Best of luck, and let us now how it goes.

Knocking on wood couldn't hurt, either;-)
You can say that again my friend!:good:
SHE LIVES
dead battery or bad battery cable one of the two. new batts, new cable and no more E-60.
Thanks Loyal & Jimmy!
Snoop,
That's great buddy, glad to hear it. Glad I could help. That is exactly what this type of forum is for.:-)
