Control Chassis Error Messages
Error messages are displayed in reverse type and may be either flashing or constant. Below are
error messages you could encounter and some potential causes. Error messages that recur
should be investigated further since they may be an indication of an incorrect setting or of
equipment that is starting to fail. There are separate error messages for each lane when
viewing the main screen. When viewing a screen that shows data for one lane only, only the
error messages associated with that lane will be displayed. Multiple error messages on one lane
will display one at a time. Clearing one will reveal the next.
This message tells the operator that the keypad is temporarily deactivated while
the control chassis performs a critical evolution (such as an initial start-up) that
could be adversely affected by keypad operation. Message clears automatically.
Indicates that the circuit breaker that supplies power to the lane is open or has
tripped. Does not distinguish between a breaker that has been manually opened
or that has tripped because of an electrical fault. Must shut the breaker, press the
TRBL CLEAR pushbutton, and enter the Trouble Clear password to reset.
Indicates that the circuit breaker that supplies power to the Ball Accelerator is open
or has tripped. Does not distinguish between one that has been manually opened or
that has tripped because of an electrical fault. To reset: shut the breaker, press the
TRBL CLEAR pushbutton, and enter the Trouble Clear password.
Indicates that the pinspotter has been shutdown by the Emergency Stop circuitry.
Either an E-STOP pushbutton has been pressed, or the E-STOP cable connector
on the back of the control chassis has been unplugged. Follow the procedure
specified in Section 1 of this manual to reset.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THE DRAWBAR DRIVE
MOTOR CONTROLLER SETTINGS.
Indicates that the drawbar drive motor controller has detected an out of tolerance
condition and has shut down the drive. The drawbar drive controller display will
indicate an error code that can be used to determine the cause. This can also help
Technical Support determine the status of the controller if the error cannot be
reset. Refer to the controller’s operating instructions for lists of warning and error
codes and their descriptions.
Attempt to reset by opening the Machine Power circuit breaker for that lane
located on the top of the control chassis, wait 7 to 8 seconds, and then shut the
breaker. Press TRBL CLEAR on the chassis keypad, and when prompted, enter
the Trouble Clear password.
One or more subsystems failed to respond during machine start-up. Check
breakers and connections and restart the control chassis.
The ball detector does not sense a return signal for an extended period of time.
Check for obstruction. Check detector alignment. Check reflector.
An off-normal condition exists at the ball lift on the approach. Reset off-normal
condition. Check cable connections. Faulty cable between ball lift and chassis.
