Procedure / Problem solutions

Checking the controller

Problem solution:
Controller info
• See the chapter “GLP/Tools

Check - Controller info”

All single information on the state of the controller is
listed.

• The check can be undertaken at any time without

affecting the measurement that is running.

• Perform the command: “Show all

“. See

“GLP/Tools

Check - Show

”

(The check is used in this case to test the IR interface.)
All working measuring heads must flash for 5 seconds.

• Perform a measuring head check - see the chapter

“GLP/Tools

Check -

info” (The check is used in this

case to test the IR interface). Here, a working
measuring head should supply its status data.

• Keyboard, display and signal tone should show the

required reaction.

• Check the function of the clock (prerequisite: clock is

available).
Switch off the instrument and switch it on again. Time
and date each appear showing the current values.

• Check RS232 interface (only required when using the

WTW software, ACHAT OC):
- Connect controller to your PC by means of the
interface cable AK540/B.
- Switch on controller and start the PC program,
ACHAT OC. In doing so, the PC program checks the
RS232 interface.

Incorrect time display
on being switched on

Cause:
• Data backup battery has been changed!
• Summer/winter time change has taken place.
Problem solution:
Set the clock (see the chapter “GLP/Tools - Settings -
Date/Time”)
