Data will be sent when the test stand force gauge platform reaches every set position or if a force
load exceeds the force limit.
Note: If the auto zero function is selected, data will be outputted at the fi rst zero position, when the test stand
platform reaches every set position or if the force gauge exceeds a force limit.
7.0 Troubleshooting
Stand does not turn on: FIRST INSPECT all parts for physical interference
Check all electrical components
• Check for correct AC power source, power cord condition, fuse condition, power switch
(should be “ON”), Emergency cut-off switch setting.
• Inspect test stand fi xtures and force gauge for overload conditions. To disengage
emergency switch, carefully press and turn clockwise.
The force gauge mounting platform does not move:
• Check manual limit knobs and adjust accordingly.
• Check to see if the full travel range has already been achieved.
• Check test stand for correct operating mode.
• Check Emergency cut-off switch setting.
Force set points are not stopping the test stand (force gauge platform) movement
Check that communication exists between the force gauge and the test stand.
Check that correct cable is fi rmly attached.
Check if the proper baud rate for communication is set from the force gauge.
Required baud rate is 19200 baud rate for FGV-X, FGV-XY. Communication with
Shimpo DFS force gauges bypasses the test stand to the PC when using the
FGS-50PCABLE.
