Diagnostics/troubleshooting

The integrated racking controller programming has built-in 

diagnostics and error detection . If an error occurs, “E1” to “E9” will 

appear on the pendant display (see 

Figure 6

) . On the back of the 

pendant there is a label that explains what the error is and what to 

do if the error occurs (see 

Figure 9

) .

E1: Motor overcurrent

Condition when motor current is in excess of allowed value . Multiple 

causes could create this condition . E1 error codes may occur if 

system is operated on temporary generator power . Operator should 

shut off power to the VC-W MR2 controller by tripping the 15 A 

circuit breaker (see 

Figure 11

) in the LV compartment and manually 

rack out the MV device . The operator should inspect the MV device, 

levering system subassembly, and controller card for obvious 

damage or abnormal conditions . If no obvious issues are found, 

reinstall the MV device  .

E2: Open motor circuit

Can occur when the motor thermal switch opens, possibly caused 

by an excessive duty cycle (more than 10 consecutive operations in 

quick succession without stopping) . Once the thermal switch closes 

(motor cools down), the controller can be reset by pressing the 

disconnect switch .

An open motor circuit as shown (

Figure 1

 and 

2

) will also cause this 

error .  Use troubleshooting as shown with

 

Figure 1

 and 

2

 .
