TROUBLESHOOTING 

 
In general, troubleshooting is a systematic process of testing and eliminating potential problem sources 
until the one that is causing the problem is found.  The problem can then be fixed by repairing or 
replacing the faulty part. 
 
With a little knowledge and by following a step by step procedure, most of the problems that you may 
encounter will be easy to diagnose and solve.  In this section, you will find guidelines on how to 
troubleshoot the system, some characteristics of a properly functioning system, and where to look 
when certain problems occur. 
 
Occasionally, someone has a problem that is not described here.  Do not panic.  By approaching the  
problem systematically, you  will be able to eliminate potential sources of trouble until you find the 
one that is causing the problem. 
 
The following section covers an explanation of V600 Test Procedures, Load Cell Evaluation Test 
Procedures and Vulcan Error Codes.  If a problem occurs and no Error Codes appear, use the V600 
meter to isolate the problem to the appropriate channel.
