NE OF THE MOTORS IS NOT WORKING BUT THE DISPLAY STILL WORKS AND IT IS POSSIBLE TO CHANGE BACKGROUND NUMBER

NE OF THE MOTORS IS NOT WORKING

HILE ROLLING A BACKGROUND THE BACKGROUND STOPS AND OL IS DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN
HILE ROLLING A BACKGROUND THE BACKGROUND STOPS AND A LOW SOUND IS COMING FROM THE CONTROL BOX

LOW SOUND COMES FROM THE CONTROL BOX AND MOTOR WHEN TRYING TO ROLL THE BACKGROUND UP

HILE ROLLING A BACKGROUND IN AUTOMATIC MODE THE BACKGROUND STOPS AND E IS DISPLAYED BUT YOU ARE ABLE TO ROLL

THE SAME BACKGROUND IN MANUAL MODE

ACKGROUNDS ARE ROLLING IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO THE

T

BUTTON PRESSED ON THE REMOTE CONTROLLER

HE REMOTE CONTROLLER IS NOT WORKING

The motor fuse is broken. Replace the fuse.

Check if the motorised expan jack is inserted properly in the power supply socket. Check if another expan running

from the same control box works. If it does, the first expan is broken - contact your local distributor to repair the

motor. If you have more than one control box, test the same motor on another control box and IR channel - if it now

works, the first control box is broken - contact your local distributor to repair the control box.

In either case, internal protection sensors have switched the motor off.

Check if the motorised expan jack is inserted properly in the power supply socket.

Check if you are using background that is too heavy. Check that the motorised expan and holders/frames are fixed

properly and do not cause additional friction to the motor.

Check if electrostatic discharge protection has been correctly set up on all motors (see "Quick start" paragraph).

Probably the temperature sensor has switched off the motor power supply. Let the internal circuity cool for one

minute. The most frequent reason of overheating is use of a background that is too heavy - check you have not

exceeded the maximum specified background weight.

Code "E1" means there is no impulse from the motor. Check if the motorised expan jack is inserted fully in the power

supply socket. Check if another expan is working, if yes the first expan's sensor circuit is broken - contact your local

distributor to repair the motor. If all motors show the same error, there is a problem with the control box's internal

circuit - contact your local distributor to repair the control box.

Change the motor rotation direction; see paragraph "SETTING MOTOR DIRECTION"

Check the batteries. If batteries are ok, it may be that you accidentally reprogrammed the working IR channel. Reset

the working IR channel to "7" (general channel), as described in paragraph "SETTING UP THE WORKING IR

CHANNEL".
