no connection establishment to
the Control Unit via ethernet
•
Control Unit and PC are not con-
nected in the same network
•
Wrong connection on the control-
ler unit is used
►
Check the IP configuration in the
PC software and make sure that
the IP address and subnet mask
are correct.
►
on the Control Unit, use the

Cal 01 to ePC 01 during the
pincer test
•
Incorrect setting of active X3
interface in the PC software
•
Wrong cable used
►
In the PC software, navigate to
the «Control Unit settings» screen
and set the «active X3 interface»
to «Cal 01».
►
Use the correct cable.
aPn / sequence cannot be
selected
•
no aPn / sequence created
•
aPn / sequence does not match
connected pincer type
Perform actions in the following se-
quence until the error is eliminated:
►
Resend the data set.
►
ensure the correct type of pincer
and reconnect the pincer.
The changes in the data set
were not applied after sending
