Brunswick StringPin, Service Manual

Section 3: Pinsetter Electronics

During the alternative de-tangle sequences, the drive motor will shut off to release the string tension
and allow the pins to lower towards the pindeck. After two seconds, the motor turns back on to raise the
pins. If a tangle is still present it will again be detected by the de-tangle switch and the motor will shut
off for another two seconds. After five failed attempts to correct the problem, the motor will shut off for
five seconds to allow the pins to lower to the pindeck. The motor then turns back on to lift the pins to
begin the next 5 attempt sequence.
This shaking pattern will continue until the strings are no longer tangled, a service person turns off the
machine and manually corrects the problem, or the six pin lowering sequences have been attempted. If
each sequence is performed without successfully de-tangling the pins, the motor shuts off to lower all
pins to the pindeck, the trouble light on the pinsetter with flash to indicate a problem, and the Controller
will display a “Tangle-01” error code. Refer to Figure 3-29.
