2.1 Machine has no power
• Ensure that electrical socket has power supply.
• Check machine fuse in main power switch.
• While power switch is on, check the following components: Voltage on contact
of main switch - if no voltage - change main switch. Check input voltage at
electronics. If the voltage is normal, exchange the electronics. if no voltage
check the cable wiring harness.

3.1 Filmfeed out of order, dryer-fan is working
• When placing processor cover on, the cover switch should be activated, re-
adjust if necessary.
• Cover switch has no current passage when activated: Replace.
• Check screwing of chain wheel on motor- and driveshaft.
3.2 Machine does not start automatically
• Film switch is not correctly positioned or operator wire is bent. Re-adjust film
switch and operator wire.
• Check following parts: Film switch, wiring of film switch and microprocessor
board.
• Check wiring from electronic to the connections of components (motor, fan,
dryer heating, solenoid valve). If the connections have no fault then electronic
is possibly defective.
3.3 Machine doesn't stop automatically
• Display “film feed” is permanently illuminated: Wire band of film switch is
jammed. Readjust wire.
• Check following parts: Film switch, wiring of film switch and microprocessor
board.
3.4 Drive motor does not run
• Check cover switch.
• Check drive motor: If voltage can be detected on motor, then motor is defec-
tive.
• Dryer fan runs but no voltage on motor: Interruption in the wiring.
3.5 Transport stops before film comes out, changing the cycle time
The cycle time is the processing time which turns off after a film has passed the film
switch. Activate the switch in the feed tray with a film and remove the film. Measure
the time until the processor stops automatically.
Following times can be measured (+/- 5%):
Change cycle time if necessary. This can be accomplished by changing the position
of the jumper on the upper side of the electronics.
As replacement fuses, please excusively use PROTEC gold
fuses. These fuses are optimally adapted to the existing con-
ditions.
