What to do if my REO REOVIB unit doesn’t work?
If your REO Controller unit isn't working, begin by checking the supply voltage and inspect the fuse, replacing it if necessary. Next, examine the short-circuit protection fuse within the controller, and replace if needed. Finally, verify that the control input (Inhibit/Enable) is correctly configured.
Why does the REO REOVIB coil get hot?
The coil of the REO Controller might be overheating due to several reasons. First, verify that the coil has the correct supply rating. Second, check if an incorrect vibrating frequency has been selected and adjust it if necessary. Also, an excessively large air-gap could be the cause.
How to troubleshoot a REO Controller when feed equipment has no power?
If the feed equipment connected to the REO Controller has no power, first ensure that the correct vibrating frequency has been selected and change it if necessary. Then, check the supply frequency (50/60 Hz) to make sure it corresponds with the vibrating frequency. Finally, verify that the setting of trimmer “Umax” isn't too low; if it is, adjust “Umax”.
What to do if the track control on my REO REOVIB Controller doesn’t operate?
If the track control on your REO Controller isn’t working, start by checking the sensor wiring for any incorrect connections. Next, verify that the time-out setting isn't too short (shorter than “ton”). Lastly, inspect the controller fuses (if fitted) for any defects and replace them if necessary.
Why is “OFF“ displayed and the feeder not working on my REO Controller?
If your REO Controller displays “OFF“ and the feeder isn't working, the issue might be due to a missing enable signal. Provide an enable signal using contacts or a 24VDC signal. Alternatively, try fitting a link between the enable terminals or inverting parameter “-En”.
What causes the REO REOVIB feed equipment to vibrate aggressively and the coil to hammer?
Aggressive vibration and coil hammering in the REO Controller feed equipment can be caused by an incorrect vibrating frequency setting. Be aware that the coil can be destroyed by overheating or damaged mechanically by hammering. Also, the setting of trimmer “Umax” might be too high; try adjusting “Umax”.
How to fix a REO REOVIB when the feeder does not vibrate?
If the feeder connected to your REO Controller isn't vibrating, it could be due to the amplitude being set to zero. Increase the amplitude by pressing the [P] key twice in menu C 000 and using the arrow keys. Another potential reason is an incorrect frequency setting; in this case, carry out a resonant frequency search.
What does it mean when my REO Controller feeder stops and shows “Error SE”?
If your REO Controller feeder stops shortly after starting and displays “Error SE”, this indicates that the sensor time out has been activated because no material is available. Cancel the sensor time out parameter “EE“. It can also mean that there is no track sensor fitted or the track sensor is defective, so you should check the sensor.
Why does my REO REOVIB Controller feeder hammer when the set point is high?
If your REO Controller feeder hammers when the set point is set high, it may be operating too close to the resonant frequency; adjust the frequency. It's also possible that the coil air-gap is too small; reduce the maximum limit [P].
Why does the REO REOVIB magnet get hot?
If the magnet in your REO Controller is getting hot, it could be because the frequency setting is too low for the coil type; increase the frequency or use a different coil. Additionally, an air-gap that is too wide could be the cause; reduce the coil air-gap.
