8. SPECIAL VISUAL SIGNALS 

The machine gives special visual signals in certain cases. The special visual signals are listed in table T8.1. 

Table T8.1: Special visual signals 

Signal 

Meaning 

Notes 

Three dots lit on one or 
both displays 

Imbalance exceeds 999 grams. 

This signal can be triggered due to: 

 

Lack of machine calibration; 

 

Incorrect measuring of the wheel dimensions; 

 

Incorrect setting of the Wheel Type; 

 

Incorrect setting of the Program Type. 

Flashing green STBY LED 

The machine is in the STAND-BY mode. 

All LEDs and displays are switched off. To exit the 
STAND-BY mode press any button  

(except for [P7] 

). 

The left (or right) display 
is flashing 

a)

 

Waiting on the user's command; 

b)

 

The Diameter or Width sensor is not 
calibrated. 

a)

 

The user's command may be the pressing a key 
to confirm or continue the procedure in 
progress or the selecting of a value or a menu 
option.

Component 

Problem 

Cause 

Solution 

ENCODER DISC 

 

It does not read all the positions (0 ÷ 
255). 

 

Encoder disc dirty. 

 

Encoder disc cable 
interrupted. 

 

Encoder board burnt. 

 

Clean the encoder disc. 

 

Replace the board and then 
the cable. 

PICK-UP SIGNALS 

 

 

The values displayed are too high. 

 

The values displayed are too low. 

 

The value displayed is 0. 

The value of the signals must range 
between 70 ÷ 110 

 

Connection cable not 
welded on the pick-
up. 

 

Connection cable not 
connected to CPU. 

 

Pick-up over 
compressed. 

 

Weld the cable to the pick-up. 

 

Check the correct connection 
of the pick-up cable to the CPU. 

 

Remove the compression 
springs and make sure that the 
pick-up moves freely. 

DISPLAY 

 

One or more segments fail to switch 
on. 

 

CPU board burnt. 

 

Replace CPU board. 

KEYBOARD 

 

One or more keys failed. 

 

CPU board burnt. 

 

Replace CPU board. 

VFC 

 

The values displayed are too high. 

 

The values displayed are too low. 

 

The value displayed is 0. 

 

When knocking the machine the 
values do not change. 

The value of the VFC must range between 
40.0 ÷ 44.0. 

 

Connection cable not 
welded on the pick-
up. 

 

Connection cable not 
connected to CPU. 

 

Pick-up too 
compressed. 

 

Weld the cable to the pick-up. 

 

Check the correct connection 
of the pick-up cable to the CPU. 

 

Remove the compression 
springs and make sure that the 
pick-up moves freely. 

MACHINE 

 

The machine does not switch on. 

 

Fuse on socket.  

 

Power supply. 

 

Power board. 

 

Check and replace the fuse. 

 

Check and replace power 
supply. 

 

Check and replace power 
board.
