9 Maintenance
Quick error recognition and eradication helps to reduce the related production stop to a minimum.
The diagnosis messages of the PMC-2, which can be read via EPAS-3 or the BE-7, enable well-
aimed and efficient error detection.
In case of any trouble, defective components can be exchanged without problem to ensure that the
trouble is cleared quickly and production can be resumed as soon as possible. This work must be
carried out by qualified maintenance staff only.
In case you return the defective unit to the ELAU customer support, please fill the distortion report
following this chapter.
CAUTION
Only units with identical hardware configuration and identical software
version may be exchanged
