GP 6.3 Service Interface Procedures
The following section describes the options available via the eWire
service menu. The options in this section should only be changed by
qualified service technicians during a service call.
GP 6.3.1
SENSOR Check Procedure
A sensor can fail in two modes:
•
Failed in High state
: Machine thinks the sensor is unblocked
even when a sensor flag or sheet is present. In this mode, the
LCD will always show "0" for that sensor, and will not go to "1"
when a sheet is present.
•
Failed in Low state:
The opposite of the above. The Sensor will
show as blocked even when there is no object blocking the
sensor.
It is less likely for a sensor to fail in a Low state. Therefore it is more likely
that the Sensor will fail to see its flag than the reverse. If the Sensor
shows “1” and will not go to “0” it is more likely that there is something
blocking the sensor, like debris or a scrap of paper.
Procedure
Do the following to check the status of any of the sensors.
The Sensors feature allows you to view the state of each of the Sensors
located throughout the eWire.
The information contained in this section of the manual will help you to
identify and test each of the Sensors in the eWire.
Cover the sensor to check if the sensor status changes from “0” to “1””.
0 means the sensor is open.
1 means the sensor is covered.
Sensors voltages can be checked using the test points on the control
boards, refer to GP 6.22
Do the following steps to check the sensors:
1. Enter Service Mode by following the procedure described in
2. In service mode, scroll down to select SENSORS from the menu.
3. Press the OK/ENTER button when the return symbol is next to the
word SENSORS to display the display the first SENSORS screen.
S1=0 S2=0 S3=0
*
S4=0 S5=0 S6=0
4. Press the down arrow to scroll through the available Sensors until you
locate the Sensor you wish to test.
5. Locate the Sensor on the machine. Refer to
locating a specific Sensor.
6. Verify that the Sensor reads “0” when unblocked and “1” when
blocked. You can do this by manually covering the sensor with a
piece of paper or other object.
7. If the Sensor does not behave as expected, refer to the
troubleshooting steps in
Sensor Checks to troubleshoot the
Sensor.
8. When you have completed the Sensor check, scroll down to
PREVIOUS MENU or EXIT to leave Sensor mode.
9. Select EXIT and press OK/ENTER to return to the top level menu.
When all the doors and covers are closed and no jams are present the
status of each sensor should be as outlined in the table below.
