Problems That Do Not Produce Error Codes
The load does not
vary when I lift a
weight.
Determine which winch you are looking at. If you are looking at the main
winch, then view the UNCALIBRATED TRANSDUCER 1 INPUT and noting
that the value shown in the LOAD display while lifting a weight and see if it is
varying. If not, then view the UNCALIBRATED TRANSDUCER 2 INPUT. If
this is varying, then the load cables have been swapped. If neither are
moving then the most probable cause is;
The load sensor is faulty. Check the resistance values. This does not give
the complete story. Even if the resistances are correct, there is still a chance
that a fault exists.
If the UNCALIBRATED values did vary when a load is lifted, then check the
calibration data. If you entered the same value of load for both the light load
and the heavy load, then the display will assume that any input represents
the same load. If this is the case, then re-calibrate.
The display works
OK, but when I lift
above a certain
load I get an Error
code.
View the UNCALIBRATED TRANSDUCER 1 and 2 INPUT’s while lifting a
load and check that the value is increasing with increasing load. If the value
is decreasing with load then the load cell signal wires are swapped or the
load cell has been installed upside-down.
The load display
is very erratic and
displays massive
changes in value.
Check the view UNCALIBRATED TRANSDUCER INPUT for that channel. If
the values are flickering by 2-3 counts while the display is changing by say a
number of tonnes, then the cause is most probably calibration. One common
cause of this is if different load values were entered for the high and low
calibration without the actual load being altered (or of course there was an
error in a load channel while you were calibrating). In other words you forgot
to lift the heavy load! (It happens often) In this situation the display is
confused because the calibration data is telling it that the signal it is seeing
represent both the low load value and the high load value simultaneously.
Correct the calibration.
This can also occur if only part of the calibration procedure has been
completed. You should expect strange results if you have not completed the
calibration of that sensor.
When the system
starts in the
morning the
displays are
erratic, but settle
during the day.
This is a common sign of moisture ingress into either the display, the
connectors, the sensors or the cable. These should be checked, dried and
sealed.
The display does
not start.
You should check the power supply. Refer to the manual for allowable
voltage ranges. If these are correct you may need to open the Control Unit
and check the fuses.
