Solution
Machine starts but does not stop
• Establish a move Preset
• Ensure brake functions properly using output test.
Machine stops out of position
• Make sure the marker pulse is detected before brake outputs fire.
Display counts backwards
• Reverse Encoder A, B, wiring.
Machine stops abruptly, not a soft stop
• Turn down torque adjust potentiometer for Channel 1.
Machine stops but then restarts

Error Codes
If an error message appears
• Disconnect power to CBC-1000 momentarily and error should
clear. Press to clear error code.
Error Code 2 - Low Line Voltage.
• Correct line voltage. Press
to clear error code.
Error Code 3 - Feedback too fast.
• Reduce encoder resolution and/or speed to keep encoder feed-
back less than 20,000 PPS. Press
to clear error code.
Error Code 4 - Process Time fully utilized
• Reduce encoder resolution or consult factory. Press to
clear error code.
