Possible Situations When
Creating Circuit Diagrams
Possible Situations When
Creating Circuit Diagrams
Explanation
Remedy
Cannot enter contact or relay
in circuit diagram
Pico is in Run mode
Select Stop mode.
Time switch switches at
wrong times
Incorrect time or time switch
parameters
Check time and
parameters.
Cannot select analog
comparator ‘Ax’
Pico ac versions have no analog
inputs
Use Pico dc for
comparing analog
values.
Cannot select time switch
contacts
Pico has no clock
‘-NC’ version does
not have a clock.
When using a memory
module Pico will display the
message ‘PROG INVALID’
Pico memory module contains no
circuit diagram
Change the version
of Pico or change the
circuit diagram in
the memory module.
Circuit diagram on the memory
module uses contacts /relays that
Pico does not recognize:
• Do not use “-NC” versions
for time switch functions
• Analog inputs only with DC
controllers
Current flow display does not
show modifications to the
circuit connections
Pico is in Stop mode
Select Run mode.
Operation / connection not
performed
Check the circuit
diagram and
parameter sets and
modify as required.
Relay does not activate coil
Incorrect parameter values / time
• Analog value comparison
is incorrect
• Time value of timing relay
is incorrect
• Function of timing relay is
incorrect
Relay ‘Q’ or ‘M’ does not pick
up
Relay coil has been wired up
several times
Check coil field
entries.
Input not detected
Loose terminal contact
Check installation
instructions, and
external wiring.
No voltage to switch/button
Broken wire
Pico input is faulty
Replace the Pico.
