6.1 Introduction

This section explains common problems that may be encountered, together with possible solutions.

6.1.1 Problem diagnosis

If you have followed all the instructions in this manual in sequence, you should have few problems installing the NextMove BXII. If you do have a problem, read this section first. In WorkBench v5, use the Error Log tool to view recent errors and then check the help file. If you cannot solve the problem or the problem persists, the SupportMet feature can be used.

6.1.2 SupportMet feature

The SupportMet feature (on the Help menu) can be used to e-mail information to the Baldor representative from whom you purchased the equipment. If required, you can choose to add your program files as attachments. WorkBench v5 will automatically start up your e-mail program and begin a new message, with comprehensive system information and selected attachments already in place. You can add any additional message of your own and then send the e-mail. The PC must have email facilities to use the SupportMet feature. If you prefer to contact Baldor technical support by telephone or fax, contact details are provided at the front of this manual. Please have the following information ready:
