## Errors
|
||
|
||
When you see an error, that means there is an issue with the hardware and most likely needs some kind of adjustment.
|
||
|
||
- If the error shows under **Now:** it means the issue is active right now
|
||
- If the error shows under **Run:** it means the error(s) have happened since last reboot.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
1. Undervolted means you aren't providing enough power. This typically happens because you have an attached device or devices that is pulling too much power or you have a power supply not producing enough power to run everything.
|
||
|
||
- If you are running something that is pulling too much power than you can use an active power hub to provide more power and get around the issue.
|
||
|
||
- If you have nothing plugged into the USB port(s) and are still getting undervolted messages it likely means your power supply is not providing enough power and needs to be replaced.
|
||
|
||
2) Throttled or Frequency Capped will likely happen because of temperature. Make sure you have good airflow around the Raspberry Pi and a decent heat sink to protect the CPU.
