14 Troubleshooting

In the fault logger (5-2 Fault log) each fault is identified with a fault code and the values of the start
counter that corresponds to the detection time of the fault. The first fault in the logger (5-2-1) is the latest
one.

In the table below, the column “Code” (e.g. F_OL) indicates the abbreviation for each fault as shown in
the fault logger.

14.1 Fault descriptions

14.1.1 Fault Hoist OL

F_OL

Hoist overload

Confirm that the value on load display is the actual load, not tared load

Confirm that the lifted load is not more than 110% of the rated load of the hoist.

Load display updates the values slower than overload protection trips.

Check the parameter 6-4 (must be equal to the rated load of the hoist)

Check if intermediate load limits are in use. (Parameters 4-1-1 and 4-2-1)

Perform the calibration procedure, when required, as described in this manual.

Check the parameter 4-7-1 value

The parameter 4-7-1 value is “Sens.”

Check the parameters 3-4-2 “Input 1” and 3-4-4 “Input 2”. When the values are equal to each other,
the calibration is done with only one load. Perform the calibration procedure as described in this
manual.

Check that the parameter 1-2-10 Ain1 value is between the parameters 3-4-2 and 3-4-4 value

-

If the parameter 1-2-10 value is ~9.8V

The signal wire hasn’t been connected to the Analog input 1 (the terminal 26)

The neutral wire is broken between the unit and the sensor.

Check the connections between the amplifier and strain gauge.

-

If the parameter 1-2-10 value is less than ~1V

The power signal wire (+10V) is broken between the unit and the sensor.

The strain gauge sensor is not connected to the amplifier.

Check the connections between the amplifier and strain gauge.

-

If the parameter 1-2-10 value is OK, but the load measure don’t work, then is possible that wires have been
connected crosswise.

Check the connections from the unit to the load sensor.
