Error Codes
During operation when an error occurs, the board will use the LEDs to incidate where the
problem exists. For motor specific faults the green LED will brlink 1 time for Motor #1
and 2 times for Motor #2. The red LED will blink from 2 to 9 times depending on the
error code:
Error codes are as follows:
2 times Battery drop out: Battery capacity low enough to drop below 6 volts while
running.
3 times Low Battery: Voltage is below 8 volts at the start of a cycle.
4 times High Battery: Voltage is greater than 18 volts.
5 times Excessive Motor Current: High amperage, also indicated by 1 side of the slide
continually stalling.
6 times Motor Short Circuit: Motor or wiring to motor has shorted out.
8 times Hall signal not present: Encoder is not providing a signal. Usually a wiring
problem.
9 times Hall Power Short to Ground: Power to encoder has been shorted to ground.
Usually a wiring problem.
When an error code is present, the board needs to be reset. Energizing the extend / retract
switch will reset the board. Energize the extend / retract switch again to go back to normal
operation.
Troubleshooting Information
Checking Fuses:
Schwintek Inwall Slide requires a minimum 30 Amp fuse. Check the Load Center for
blown fuses and replace any if necessary. If the fuse blows immediately upon
replacement, there is a problem with the wiring to the Inwall Slide control box. A
qualified service person should be called to check and repair.
Obstructions:
Check outside the RV for possible obstructions: tree, post, car etc… Check inside the RV
for any obstructions: luggage, furniture, open cabinets, etc… Also check for smaller
objects that may be wedged under the floor or in the sides of the unit. Remove
obstructions before proceding.
Error Codes:
Refer to error codes explained previously along with instructions on how to locate the
Inwall Slide Controller.
Low Voltage:
The Schwintek Inwall Slide Controller is capable of operating the room with as little as 8
volts. But at these lower voltages the amperage requirement is greater. Check the voltage
at the controller. If voltage is lower than 11 volts, it is recommended that the battery be
