Troubleshooting
4-7
If the problem is in a Receiver and there are no Extensions, the Main Receiver is defective.
Return the unit to Wintriss for repairs. If there are Receiver Extensions, turn off power and
disconnect the last Extension; then turn the power back on. If the Power LED behaves
normally, the Receiver Extension you removed is defective. If the Power LED dims and
blinks, another Extension is at fault. Continue removing Extension heads, one at a time, until
you find the defective Receiver segment. Return the defective unit to Wintriss for repairs.
If the problem is in a Transmitter, follow the same process to isolate the defective Transmitter
segment. Return the defective unit to Wintriss for repairs.
Checking and Cleaning Lens Windows
Sometimes dirt, oil, or another substance adheres to the plastic lens window on the optic
heads, potentially blocking one or more light beams and inadvertently causing a press
shutdown. If the Machine Run/Stop LED indicator is lit red when there are no objects in the
light field and one or more Individual Beam Indicators are lit on the receiver, a dirty lens
window may be the cause.
To clean the lens window, use a clean, particle-free cloth and a mild detergent or glass
cleaner. Make sure you avoid excessive rubbing.
Checking Alignment
Shadow 8 can go out of alignment if the universal mounting brackets have been bent, if a unit
has been struck by another piece of equipment (e.g., die cart, forklift, etc.), or if mounting
bolts have loosened, allowing the units to move slightly. You may have an alignment
problem if the Machine Run/Stop LED indicator is lit red when the light field is clear and one
or more Individual Beam Indicators are lit on the receiver.
To check alignment, first loosen the universal mounting brackets at both ends of one of the
optic heads. Rotate the head back and forth, watching the Machine Run/Stop LED indicator
to see if it becomes illuminated green (see Aligning and Tightening Down Shadow 8 Heads,
page 2-49).
If the Machine Run/Stop LED does not come on green, remove either the receiver or
transmitter from its bracket, and move it to within 12 in. (304.8 mm) of the other unit. (Do not
position the heads closer than 12 in.) Make sure that the connection to the control remains
intact as you move one head closer to the other. Aim the head so it is pointing directly at the
mating optic head, watching the Machine Run/Stop LED indicator. Shadows will always
align at this close range if working properly. If the Machine Run/Stop LED comes on green,
the optic heads may have been misaligned when anchored in their brackets. Check for the
cause of misalignment and correct it.
