The self-diagnostic process has two parts, first is to find the alignment shape on the aiming mask (the black rectangle), second to find the aiming bull. This error message is when the alignment shape could not be found. There are three primary reasons this could happen.

1.An aiming mask is either not loaded into the target, or loaded incorrectly.

2.The aiming mask is shot up, always be sure to load a new one.

3.The camera is out of focus. To check, change the target to practice mode open Live View. Visit Focusing the NC Model Target Camera, to learn how to focus.
If the camera has to be refocused, the camera will have to be re-calibrated.
