15. OPERATING MODES: NORMAL, SERVICE, STAND-BY
The machine features three operating modes:
•
STANDARD mode. This mode is enabled after the machine is turned on and it is possible to perform the wheels balancing;
•
SERVICE mode. In this mode various utility programs are available for setting parameters (such as grams or ounces) or
checking the machine operations (such calibration);
•
STAND-BY mode. After 5 minutes without user activity, the machine automatically switches to STAND-BY mode to reduce
electrical consumption (both with wheel guard raised or lowered). The STAND-BY green led on the control keyboard is
blinking it means the machine is in this operating mode. All acquired data and settings are held in STAND-BY mode. In the
SERVICE mode is not possible to switch to STAND-BY mode. To exit from STAND-BY mode choose by any of the following
means:
Press any key;
Turn manually the wheel;
Remove the Distance and Diameter sensor from the rest position;
Pull out the Width sensor from the rest position (only for the models with automatic acquisition of Width).
Note: the machine exits the STAND-BY mode also by pressing the key [P8] Start
or lowering the wheel guard. In these cases
simultaneously, will be start also the spinning (if you press key [P8] Start the spin will start only if the wheel guard is already lowered).
15.1 Temporary disabling of the diameter and distance sensor
If the machine displays the error code
ERR 016
(Distance/Diameter sensor not in the rest position) at switching on, although being in
rest position, it means that an anomaly occurred in the acquisition system. However, it is possible to temporarily disable the
acquisition system by pressing [P5]
. The disabling condition is highlighted by the
status icon, indicating that the
automatic acquisition system is disabled and that the machine is ready for use. As it is not possible to use the automatic acquisition
system, the wheel dimensions must be entered manually. By turning the machine off and back on again, the error code will re-appear
and you will once again need to proceed as described above. If the automatic acquisition system is malfunctioning and it blocks the
machine in a permanent acquisition function, the temporary disabling could be done also after the machine is switched on.
Note: the temporary disabling of the Distance/Diameter sensor also acts on the sensor for the automatic acquisition of width.
15.2 Temporary disabling of the width sensor (where applicable)
If the machine displays error code
ERR 017
(Width sensor not in the rest position) when powered up, even if in rest position, it means
that an anomaly occurred in the acquisition system.
However, it is possible to
temporarily disable
the width sensor by pressing [P5]
. The disabling condition is highlighted by
the
status icon, indicating that the automatic acquisition system is disabled and that the machine is ready for use. As it is
not possible to use the width sensor, the width dimensions must be entered manually. By turning the machine off and back on again,
the error code will re-appear and you will once again need to proceed as described above. If the width sensor is malfunctioning and
it blocks the machine in a permanent acquisition function, the temporary disabling could be done also after the machine is switched
on.
Note: the temporary disabling of the Distance/Diameter sensor also acts on the sensor for the automatic acquisition of width.
