Removing faults

Fault

Cause

Remedy

No data interchange between Tel-
lus and the machine

Check all the cable connections.

Voltage necessary for the unit box
is too low

Check the battery. If "0" display-
ed, check the cables of the con-
nected sensors for a short-circuit.

The voltage necessary for the
electrical system is too low

Check the battery. Replace the fu-
se if the indicator shows "0“.

The voltage necessary for the mo-
tors and hydraulics is too low.

Check the battery. Replace the fu-
se if the indicator shows "0“.

All values have been reset to the
ex-factory setting. Erroneous ent-
ries or errors on the board

Re-enter all inputs for the machi-
ne. If the error occurs again, the
board is defective and must be re-
placed.

Short-circuit in the cable of the
drive motor on the metering de-
vice.

Replace the cable

Drive motor on the metering de-
vice is working too laboriously.

Clean the metering device

Metering device is blocked by a
foreign body

Remove the foreign body

Short-circuit in the cable of the
drive motor on the metering device

Short-circuit in the cable

Drive motor on the metering de-
vice is not connected

Connect the drive motor

The drive motor on the metering
device is turning too quickly or too
slowly

Adapt the drive speed

The metering device is working wi-
th the wrong settings

Check the micrometering setting

The sensor on the metering device
is defective

Replace the sensor

The fan speed is too high or too
low

Keep the fan speed within the tar-
get range

Wrong setting on the metering de-
vice

Check the setting

Seed hopper almost empty

Fill the seed hopper

Calibration test not correct

Perform the calibration test again
