When the strap is completely retracted, the display may indicate a force > 0

since the strap limit switch presses against a buffer spring!

Possible error indications

►

Remedy common errors by following the instructions in the display!

Display

Description

Remedy

High force

Start: pull in

Permitted motor current

exceeded

Start strap retraction

Winding - error

Start: pull in

Internal traction ca-

ble winding error

Extract the strap and then take care that

the strap is drawn in straight and evenly

when attempting again

EEPROM - error

Start: pull in

Inconsistency in RAM and/or

EEPROM data

Start strap retraction

Counter reading error:

Measurement results are not

displayed

Measurement invalid - repeat measur-

ing run

Blank display - device is

in self-discharge protection

mode:

The device has an automatic

shutdown feature to prevent

deep discharge. If within ten

minutes no functions occur

and no data transmitted, the

device switches itself off

Press “Start” to switch on the device
