This chapter describes several tests that can shorten the time for troubleshooting. Most
problems require the use of two or more tests to determine the cause.
If a problem is isolated to a load cell, it may not mean the load cell is the damaged
component. Mechanical imbalances and system piping stress (lack of piping flexures,
pressure hoses draped over, pipes etc.) can make a load cell or Weight Processor seem to
be the problem.
If you are in doubt as to how to resolve a problem or if you need assistance, review

Error Messages
•
A/D Convert Error! - Load Cells input out of range.
•
Motion Error! - Check Motion Tolerance Settings and Retry
•
Too Lo Error! - Verify that the load cell signal level is 0-25 mV. Verify that there is
enough weight on the scale.
•
Too Hi Error! - Verify that the load cell signal level is 0-25mV. Verify that there is too
much weight on the scale.
•
No C2 Sensor! - Instrument did not detect a C2 Load Sensor
•
CAL Failed! - Too few counts between Zero and Span.
•
C2 Caps Unequal! - Different load cell capacities (For example 50 lbs capacity load cell
and 100 lbs capacity load cell on one system. Make the load cells equal by removing the
odd load cell and replacing it with a load cell that is equal to the other’s capacity.
•
HI/LO Too Close! - Zero and Span are not more than 1,000 counts from each other or
there is no change or negative change. Reset either so the counts are more than 1,000
counts of each other.
•
Not Allowed! - Value entered is outside the range allowed. Try another value.
•
Need Cal with ITJBOX - IT summing card is not installed. Install an IT summing card
then do a Calibration with the card installed to access the IT information.
