4. My LightWRITER is not working!

• Does your LightWRITER work with the charger connected? If it does, then it may need a battery replacement.
• Does the green light come on when the charger is plugged into the LightWRITER? If not, have you tried another outlet known to be working? If it still doesn't work, it's possible that you need a new charger. Contact ZYGO for more information.
• If the green light comes on when the charger is plugged into the LightWRITER, but it still doesn't work, try to reset the unit. You can accomplish this by pressing the OFF key for 20 seconds. Resetting prompt will show on your display, followed by other checks that the system is going through. When the greater-than sign (>) shows on the display, try to see if your unit is working.

5. My LightWRITER does not appear to be working properly?

• To reset the LightWRITER to factory defaults, press Mem + Mem + Mem + L + 0 (number zero). Answer Y when you're asked.
• The reset procedure will not effect stored messages. However, all the different parameters that you may have set previously, need to be reset.
