2 ELECTRICAL TRIPP Model B ELECTRICAL SYSTEM UNDERSTANDING TROUBLESHOOTING INSTRUCTIONS Before you use the troubleshooting charts, you must understand a few basic symbols, key words, and components. SIGNAL LIGHT Signal lights (A) are located on proximity switches, DIN cables, and DIN suppression modules. Many electrical failures cannot be detected even if the machine is started. If your visual inspection does not indicate the possible malfunction refer to the electrical system troubleshooting guide that follows. To avoid possible personal injury and/or engine damage from accidental engine startup, always disconnect the battery before servicing the machine. Never shut off battery disconnect switch with engine running. This could cause damage to the voltage regulator, alternator, and/or electrical system. HARNESS CONNECTIONS Harness connections are checked from the source to the connection either to a junction box or the logic box (in other words, both ends of harness). INSPECTION Inspect the electrical system for clues to the malfunction. Check to see if the unit can be operated without further damage to the system. Always check these items before turning on switches or running the machine: 1. Look for bare wires that could cause grounds or shorts. Shorted wires can damage the charging system. 2. Look for loose or broken wires. 3. Inspect all connections, especially battery connection points. Cleaning harness connectors or ground connections can often correct what appears to be a malfunction. 4. Check the battery electrolyte level. Continued loss of electrolyte fluid indicates overcharging or cracked battery case. 5. Inspect for overheated parts after the unit has been stopped for a while. They will often smell like burned insulation. Put your hand on the alternator. Heat in these parts, when the machine has not been operated for some time, is a sure clue to charging circuit problems. LVDT TROUBLESHOOTING Through the use of these troubleshooting charts, you may be required to adjust the LVDT s. Adjusting the LVDT s may require two workers: 1. At the PLC, make certain that the LH Max Rail Lift and RH Max Rail Lift potentiometers are set at At the RH Control Console, make certain that the RH Rail Height Potentiometer is set to it s minimum position (LH Rail Height Pot will have no effect on the lifting). 3. Unplug the LVDT on the left side of the Rail Lift Assembly. Run the automatic rail lift cycle. LH side of rail lift assembly should lift considerably higher than the right. Plug the cable back into the LVDT. 4. At the RH Control Console, make certain that the LH Rail Height Potentiometer is set to it s minimum position (RH Rail Height Pot will have no effect on the lifting). 5. Unplug the LVDT on the right side of the Rail Lift Assembly. Run the automatic rail lift cycle. RH side of rail lift assembly should lift considerably higher than the left side. Plug the cable back into the LVDT. 6. At the RH Control Console, make certain that both the LH and RH Rail Height POTs have been returned to their original positions.

6 ELECTRICAL TRIPP Model B PLC TROUBLESHOOTING/ADJUSTMENTS PLC POTENTIOMETER ADJUSTMENTS Always ensure that the PLC does not come into contact with high-voltage equipment or power equipment. Damage to PLC may occur. Under NO circumstances should the power supply terminals/cables be connected to any other terminal on this unit. Damage to PLC may occur. Specifications: Battery Type F2-40BL (Mitsubishi) NORDCO P/N Battery Life years Low Battery Indication..... Batt.V LED is ON Maintenance: Check input/output terminals for corrosion. Check for loosening of terminals due to vibration. NOTE: The run/stop switch must be in the STOP position in order to program the PLC. Under normal operating conditions, the run/stop switch is in the RUN position. Refer to Drawing for more information on the PLC s and controls.

8 ELECTRICAL TRIPP Model B PROGRAMMING THE PLC 1. Make certain that the battery switch (on the machine) is turned ON. 2. Make sure the ignition key is in the OFF position. 3. Remove cover on main (left) PLC module. Once the cover is removed you ll see a removable program (memory) chip and a cable (programming) port. 4. Remove the program chip. On the bottom side of the chip there is a switch. Slide the switch to the left and reseat the chip onto the PLC. 5. Put the Run/Stop switch in the STOP position. 6. Using the program loader, plug the cable into the programming port on the PLC. 7. Turn the ignition key to the ON position to power up the system. (You don t need the engine running to load the program). 8. On the program loader there are 2 buttons. Make sure the WR light is illuminated. With the new program chip in the program loader, press the ENT button twice. 9. Once the ENT light turns off, turn the Ignition switch to the OFF position. 10. Unplug the program loader. 11. Put the Run/Stop switch in the RUN position. 12. Remove the program chip from the PLC and slide the switch to the right. Reseat the chip into the PLC. 13. Current version is now loaded. Make certain new sticker is placed on program chip that states the latest version number. Electrical, Page 8 JUNE/2004 ( )
