29-RVS Motion Error (Refer to Hardware Guide)
[SHUTDOWN] The VAC did not correctly detect reverse motion during the configuration wizard phase when asked to
move the vehicle in reverse for three second.
Possible Cause(s)
Action
Speeding during drive
forward test
•
Log in to the VAC as a Maintenance operator and re-run the configuration wizard
(see Section 2).
•
Drive slowly where directed.
Insufficient “BLU”
(motion sensing)
connection point
•
Verify that the “BLU” wire is connected to the proper traction (motion) sensing circuit
.
Refer to the PowerFleet
®
Installation Guide.
•
Log in to the VAC as a Maintenance operator and re-run the configuration wizard
(see Section 2)
Failed fuse on “BLU”
(motion sensing) wire
•
Verify that the fuse for the “BLU” wire is not blown or missing.
•
Repair as needed.
•
Log in to the VAC as a Maintenance operator and re-run the configuration wizard
(see Section 2).
“BRN” wire
connection
point (Internal
combustion vehicles
only)
•
Verify that the “BRN” wire is connected to the proper traction (motion) sensing circuit
.
Refer to the PowerFleet
®
Installation Guide.
•
Log in to the VAC as a Maintenance operator and re-run the configuration wizard
(see Section 2)
Incorrect reverse motion
values
•
Log in to the VAC as a Maintenance operator and re-run the configuration wizard
(see Section 2).
•
Log in to the VAC and review the motion values (see: “Defining ‘Motion’ Manually”).
•
Adjust values as needed.
Vehicle cable
•
Use an ohmmeter to check resistance to verify cable integrity (an “open” or zero
reading indicates a damaged cable) on the “BLU” wire.
•
Replace the cable as needed and retest.
Vehicle has separate
forward and reverse
motors
•
Use a dual-
diode solution to split the “BLU” wire into 2 wires to sense when either of
the separate drive motors are active.
