MESSAGE Explanation and Corrective Action
Shuttle Fault Explanation: If the control processor detects the shuttle operating either above
or below the proper frequency, it shuts down the shuttle and
attempts to restart it. If the shuttle still operates incorrectly after
three consecutive attempts, the Control Processor goes Offline,
and the Shuttle Fault message is displayed.
Corrective Action: Depress the CLEAR Key, then put the printer back Online. Send
a print job to the printer or perform a print test.
If the error condition returns, cycle printer power, then try to print
again.
If the fault condition returns after performing the above actions,
perform the following checks:
Check and verify that the shuttle drive belt is not broken or loose.
Replace it if it is.
Check sensor position, cable, and Engine Controller Board
connection. If the connection and cable are OK and the sensor is
properly installed, turn the shuttle drive gears by hand. If they do
not turn freely, remove the shuttle mechanism and check it again.
If it turns freely while removed, check the Hammer Bank for free
side-to-side movement.
If the Hammer Bank is binding and does not slide freely, replace
the shaft bearing blocks on the Hammer Bank.
If the shuttle mechanism still does not turn freely or you find
broken or excessively worn gears, replace the Shuttle Drive
Mechanism.
If they turn freely, the Hammer Bank is not binding, and no exces-
sive wear is present, perform a motor check using the
Shuttle
Selection under the Motor Parameter in the TEST Menu . If the
motor does not function properly, check the drive motor connec-
tion on the Engine Controller Board and check the motor cable.
Correct any problems you encounter with these items.
If the connection and cable are OK, check and ensure that the
proper voltage is provided at the motor connector plug on the
Engine Controller Board. If the voltage is incorrect, check voltage
at the Power Supply. If power supply voltage is OK, replace the
Engine Controller Board. If Power Supply voltage is not correct,
check the input voltage. If the input voltage is OK, then replace
the Power Supply. If the input voltage is not correct, there is a
problem with the site power source. Call an electrician.
Skip Ribbon Weld
Explanation:
This is an advisory message. The message appears when
the welded part of the ribbon is moving across the
H ammer B ank.
Corrective Action: None. Wait for the ribbon to finish moving, and the message
will disappear.
