Trouble Shooting Guide
Most electronic problems are usually one of the
following:
• Harness connections.
• Damaged harness wires.
• Loose terminal in harness plug.
• Sensor to Actuator clearance.
• Defective sensor.
The monitor will alert the operator of these problems as
a communication error.
Checking Harness
First, check for the obvious things like broken connections,
loose terminals, insulation rubbed off and so forth.
• Check continuity of wires with ohm meter.
Checking Sensors
The best approach to testing a sensor is to substitute a
suspected sensor with a known good one. If the problem
goes away, the sensor is faulty. If it does not go away,
it is faulty wiring.
Bin Level Sensors ensure there is no foreign material
covering the optical sensor. Remove material with a
cloth as not to damage lens.
Make sure sensor wires are not damaged.
Checking Blockage System
Check modules by performing a blockage module test
on the monitor.
Optical sensors make sure the “optical eyes” are not
coated with material or worn down. Remove material
with a cloth as not to damage lens.
Pin sensors make sure there is no buildup of material
on the pins. Remove material buildup with a knife and
gently scraping away the material buildup.
Make sure sensor wires are not damaged.
