7 Troubleshooting
Table 18: General troubleshooting
Problem
Corrective action
Too many crimps are failing that
appear to be good.
Carefully inspect the crimp. Does it meet your quality criteria?
Ensure that the tooling is in optimum condition.
Reduce the sensitivity of the analysis methods. Experiment by changing
the sensitivity by about 0.5 at a time.
Is the headroom of the crimp above 35%?
Failed crimps are passing the
analysis.
Carefully inspect the crimp. Does it truly fail your quality criteria?
Adjust the sensitivity of the analysis methods so that they are more
sensitive. Experiment by changing the sensitivity by about 0.5 at a time.
Is the headroom of the crimp above 35%?
Terminator foot switch still cycles
the system when the CQM failed
a crimp and the operator did not
respond to the error. (Depends
on which host is selected.)
Is the appropriate host system selected in the CQM Settings?
Is the interface cable connected to the DAQ module and the host
terminator?
Is the interface cable damaged?
If the system is on a non-TE terminator, has it been properly connected?
The touch screen does not
respond.
Plug in a USB mouse and navigate to the Touch Screen calibrate mode.
Start the calibration with the mouse, and then proceed with touching the
screen. If touches are not recognized, the unit is not working correctly.
You can continue to operate the system with the USB mouse or return it
for repair or replacement.
The touch screen responds
intermittently
Recalibrate the Touch Screen.
Plug in a USB mouse to navigate to the Touch Screen calibration.

Possible cause
Corrective action
On terminators with an analog height sensor, the
coefficients are incorrect or have not been entered
Verify and correct any settings as necessary
Disconnected or damaged cables
Correct any problems with the cables
CQM II settings for the position and force sensors do
not match the sensors that are installed on the
terminator
Verify and correct any settings as necessary
Damaged or defective sensors
Verify sensor operation by jogging the terminator
while observing the sensor readings on the
Diagnostic DAQ I/O page
An analysis method does not work for an unusual
crimping application
Use the Reports screen to examine any INVALID
crimps that occurred in Learn_mode*
(APT terminators only) Gain is set too high.
Manually reduce the gain by going into "Diagnostics"
and opening the "Piezo" tab.
