Corrective Action

 

 

 

 

 

ECB

Control Panel

Power on unit. Check for 5VDC between pins 1 and 2. (Page 18)

MALFUNCTION

 

No 5VDC? Replace control panel.

500R, 500U

 

Check for 6VDC or more between pins 5 and 6 of 6PA while issuing

 

 

 

a resistance command.

 

 

 

• No 6VDC or more? Replace control panel.

 

 

 

 

--------

 

Defective Cables

• Perform continuity check on upper section and lower section cables.

 

 

 

 

Replace broken cables.

 

 

 

 

 

--------

 

Defective ECB

• If cables test OK and voltage is correct on 5 &6 pins – replace ECB

 

Control Board

 

 

board

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• If ECB does not fix- connect 6PA and 6PB.

 

 

 

 

--------

 

Optical Sensor

• Check DC volts between pins 2 and 3. Rotate blades of the motor

 

 

 

 

 

shaft, voltage should shift from 0 VDC and 5VDC. If voltage does

 

DC Motor

 

not shift- replace EC B Board

 

• Check for 6 VDC or more between pins 5&6 on 6 pin PBA @ ECB

 

 

 

 

 

board connection. If >6 VDC exists but motor doesn’t rotate, replace

 

 

 

motor.

 

 

 

 

 

--------

 

ECB Limit Switch

• Check continuity between pins 2 and 4 of 6PB. Press lower limit

 

 

 

 

 

switch.

 

 

 

• If no continuity shift- replace ECB limit switch assembly.

 

 

 

---------

 

Loud Continuous

The loud continuous tone is a safety feature designed to protect the

 

Tone from lower

 

ECB motor. If the motor binds and cannot move the ECB board will

 

board (ECB board)

 

divert the power from the motor to a speaker that emits this tone. If

 

 

 

you have the continuous tone check to see if the motor is bound.

 

 

 

Check the front pivot point

for the magnet bar and loosen the

 

 

 

bolt to allow for the motor to freely move the magnet bar.

Note: If motor has been bound and then freed the motor may have been weakened. If components now move freely but the motor is laboring – replace the motor.
