Safety functions and fault displays

Safety functions
F1 - Overloading
In order to prevent overloading of the drive motor and

resulting danger to the operator the RM200 is provided with a

load control.
This continuously measures the actual motor load and

indicates this in the load control display. In case of overloading

the load control switches off the machine in good time and

guarantees a cooling time. This is indicated to the operator by

the alternately flashing display F1 and the remaining cooling

time, e.g. 03 = 3 minutes.
After the cooling time has elapsed it is only necessary to

switch the machine off and on again to operate it normally

again.

F4 – Hood open
If the hood is open the drive should not run. This serves to

protect the operator from injury. If the hood is opened while

the machine is running the drive is immediately switched off

by the controller and “F4” appears in the display. If the start

button is pressed with the hood open in order to start the

milling operation F4 is also displayed and the drive is not

started.
This signal can be deleted by pressing the stop button.

F5 –Keyboard control
If one or more buttons are accidentally pressed for longer than

15 seconds the drive is switched off by the controller and F5 is

displayed.
This function is intended to prevent unintentional faulty

operation if an object accidentally presses on the keyboard.
In order to delete this fault signal switch the machine off and

on again once.

F6 – Switch control for hood switch
If the switch which controls hood opening has a lead defect

this is recognised by the controller and causes the machine to

be switched off. “F6” appears in the display. To remedy this

fault repairs by an authorised Retsch service technician are

required.
