SECTION 4: TROUBLESHOOTING
TROUBLESHOOTING - What To Do
This section is for troubleshooting problems. To locate and correct problems, use the following steps as a guide:
1. Start by reading the WIRING CONSIDERATIONS section. Even if the system worked well for a time, dry
weather or increased plant electrical noise can cause new problems.
2. Then follow the CHECKOUT procedure in the front of this manual. If anything does not work right, read the
diagnostics section that follows it.
3. Read the section on NORMAL OPERATING SEQUENCE to be sure you understand what it is supposed to
be doing. If you are still unsure as to how the software logic works, call us.
4. Read the list of TYPICAL PROBLEMS that follows on the next page.
5. Read the section on VERIFYING LOAD CELL function to be sure that the load cells are operating correctly.
6. For difficult problems we can provide the most help if we have a printout of the PARAMETER table (KEYPAD,
*77) and 10 or more cycles of cycle-by-cycle printouts (KEYPAD, *54). (See below for printouts)
7. Try rebooting the controller (turn power off/on).
8. Try a CLEAR. Turn power off. Hold the "CE" key down and turn power ON. Display will say (CLEAR).
9. As a last resort, try a factory reset (Clear All). Turn off controller power. Hold down keys VIEW, BATCH and
EXIT and turn on controller. The display should show POWER ON RESET.
Warning: A Clear All will reset parameters, settings and totals to factory defaults. Hopper types will need to
be reset (see *14) and settings will need to be entered after a Clear All.
To Print the PARAMETER Table - Keypad Sequence:
Press Display will say: ENTER PASSWORD
Press Display will say: PROGRAM
Press Display will say: INSTRUCTION [ __ ]

Now run the blender normally until you have collated 10 or more cycles of Cycle-by-Cycle printout and then
email this with the PARAMETER Report directly to your local Maguire reseller with a short cover note
explaining your process, how the blender is located, if any changes have been made recently and what
problems you are experiencing now.
