What does Eversys error code S-000 mean?
When a Cameo is switched on, its control runs an initialization: it starts its systems and checks that the machine is ready for drinks. During this time the display shows "Initialize, please wait..." as S-000. The maker's table gives a single instruction, to wait until the initialization has finished. It lists no cause and no failure, since this is the normal starting state. The message appears in the stop-message list because the machine cannot make drinks while it is starting. If the machine shows S-000 for far longer than usual, or never leaves it, that would be unusual and is worth a technician's attention, but the table does not give a time. Nothing about it needs attention from the operator beyond patience, because the control is completing its own start-up routine.

Possible causes
Likely causes — what usually sits behind error code S-000 on this control. A technician confirms which one it is before any part is replaced.
- Machine start-up is in progress after being switched on
- A start-up that stalls because a part fails its check
- Power that dips during start-up so the sequence restarts
Safe checks before calling for service
- Wait without pressing keys until S-000 goes away.
- Do not switch the machine off and on again during start-up.
- Note how long it took if it seems longer than usual.
- Report it if it never reaches the drink screen.
How a technician diagnoses error code S-000
- Time the start-up and watch which step it stops at.
- Check the supply voltage and main switch.
- Read the event log for failed checks.
- Check the control board only if start-up stalls repeatedly.
- Start-up stalls can come from live electrical parts inside the machine.
- The event log needs the maker's service access.
How error code S-000 differs from similar codes
S-001 follows on from start-up while the coffee boilers heat, so the two often appear one after the other.
