**This errorlog was close to complete his second loop (the second loop is completed after the loop mark overwrites a valid errorcode at offset 124), it had at least 59 errorcodes and is missing 5 more to complete 2 loops

**After using the command '''clearerrlog''' the errolog is emptyed (completly filled with FF), and the newest error is stored at relative offset 0 (at most top of the errorlog structure, but displayed at bottom by the comand errlog)
**After using the command '''clearerrlog''' the errolog is emptyed (completly filled with FF), and the next error is stored at relative offset 0 (at most top of the errorlog)
**There is no loop mark because there is only 1 errorcode, but syscon considers the first errorcode found with value FFFFFFFF while reading the errorlog structure from top to bottom is the loop mark (so the next errorcode at offset 8 is considered the oldest)

== Error transmission ==
I think it would be supercool to add descriptions of how the error is passed to syscon using a predefined visual style (common for all error codes)<br>The first detail that worths to be considered to do this is how many different ways exists to pass an error code to syscon, as far i understand there are only 2, either with a control signal not following any protocol (a simnple "pullup" or "pulldown") or by using some kind of data bus (but some of this data buses are still unknown, at least for me), anyway, we can do something like this:<br>
*Error '''1002'''
**Type = pulldown
**Adquired by:
***Mullion syscons [[Template:Syscon pinout BGA 200 pads|BGA 200]] pad D7 (RSX_POW_FAIL)
***Sherwood syscons [[Template:Syscon pinout LQFP 128 pins|LQFP 128]] pad <abbr title="Unknown">UNK</abbr>
***Sherwood syscons [[Template:Syscon pinout LQFP 100 pins|LQFP 100]] pad <abbr title="Unknown">UNK</abbr>
One of the goals of this idea is... if we know how every error code is generated then we will be able to take an scrap motherboard (for experiments) and "sabotage" it to generate some/all the error codes manually, this way we can identify them accuratelly and have a way bigger understanding of what means each and/or what sony engineers was trying to achieve--[[User:Sandungas|Sandungas]] ([[User talk:Sandungas|talk]]) 02:23, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
