Notes: This error will occur any time the machine is started or on a power loss to the controller. On
normal operation the Touch screen will display an error noted above and check the pot voltages. The
machine will make a series of “CAL” or “TST” commands until the system detects the machine in an
unwound condition. This can be confirmed by the wind indictor lights on the main controller. Both the
LSP and MP lights should be in the middle position “Green”.

“Encoder B not working
on platter X See
supervisor”
Notes: Encoder B errors can be caused by a number of things. The most common causes are follows:
1.
The drive chain on affected platter is too tight causing an oscillation on start up of the motor. The
paddle wheel on the back shaft of the motor moves oscillates in both directions at a slow rate of
speed through the optical reader causing the encoders to give a false reading.
2.
The drive chain on affected platter is too loose causing an oscillation on deceleration to called
position. The paddle wheel moves or oscillates in both directions at a slow rate of speed through
the optical reader and gives a false reading.
3.
Ambient light is picked up the optical reader. This is almost impossible with model C as motor
covers keep the encoders in the dark at all times.
4.
A hard Jam causes the machine to stop suddenly causing oscillation in the paddle wheel.
