x Verify that the motor is sized appropriately for the application.
Don't expect a tiny, NEMA 23 motor with no gearing to spin a
manhole cover.
x If your power supply is a switcher or an underpowered “bulk”
linear supply with insufficient current and/or capacitance, and
cannot tolerate regenerated energy, you’ll have problems running
Auto-Tune. ClearPath motors can operate between 24-75 VDC,
but they require adequate power to complete an Auto-Tune.
Issue: My ClearPath is getting shutdowns.
x A shutdown does not automatically mean that the motor is broken
or defective.
x Shutdowns with yellow or green blink codes usually mean that
ClearPath is reporting a problem but is unlikely to be the source of
the problem. Connect ClearPath to your PC running ClearView
3.0 and look in the “Exceptions” field to see what’s being
reported.
x Check the ClearPath User Manual (Appendix A) for blink code
details and suggested fixes.
x If you see a shutdown accompanied by a red flashing LED, you’ll
probably have to return your ClearPath for repair or replacement.
Check the Teknic website for repair/return information.
How do I restore my ClearPath to its factory default settings?
If you need to return ClearPath to its original state (i.e., configured exactly
as it was when we shipped it to you), use File>Reset Config File To Factory
Defaults. All parameters and settings will be over-written and ClearPath
will be returned to its default factory configuration.
