9.  Troubleshooting 

The  following  are  general  checkpoints;  please  call  your  local  Shimpo  representative  or  contact  Shimpo 
Instruments directly for further assistance. 

 

Even if the power supply is turned on, 
LCD doesn't display. 

Confirm the voltage of the input supply. 

The  force  gauge/load  cell  mounting 
plate does not move. 

Check  power  connections  and  power  source,  ensure  that  test 
stand power is on. 
Check whether the load hangs too much. 
Check manual limit switches and adjust accordingly. 
Confirm whether the emergency switch is ON. 
Check the mounted force gauge is over load. 
Check to see if the full travel range has already been achieved. 
Check to be sure you are in the correct mode of operation. 

The stand will not accept a program. 

Move force gauge/load cell mounting plate to Home position. 
Check to see if you are in the correct mode of operation (PROG). 

The stand is noisy at operating. 

It is not abnormal though the sound of the motor gear is high at 
rapid moving. Use the lower speed than the current setting.
