Slide Valve Actuator Troubleshooting Guide Blink Code

TM
actuators communicate problems discovered by the internal diagnostics to the technician by LED blink codes.
Only one blink code is displayed, even though it is possible that more than one problem has been detected. The actua-
tor motor will not operate until the error code is cleared by pressing the blue bottom, see Table 14-3. LED Blink Codes
and Troubleshooting Guide.

This indicates a zero span. This error can only occur during cali-
bration. The typical cause is forgetting to move the actuator when
setting the upper limit of the span. If this is the case, press the
blue button to restart the calibration procedure. This error can also
occur if either or both of the slotted optocouplers are not working.
If this is the case, the slide valve actuator will have to be replaced.
The operation of the slotted optocouplers can be tested as follows:
1. Manually rotate the motor shaft until the aluminum photo-
chopper fence is not blocking either of the optocoupler slots.
2. Using a digital multimeter, measure the DC voltage between
terminal 3 of the small terminal block and TP1 on the circuit board
(see Note 1). The measurement should be between 0.1 and 0.2 Vo
lts.
3. Next, measure the DC voltage between terminal 3 and TP2 on
the circuit board. You should measure be- tween 0.1 and 0.2 Volts.
*-----------------------
This error means that the slide valve actuator is no longer trans-
mitting accurate position information. The actuator should be
recalibrated as soon as possible, after the cause of the over-speed
is identified and corrected. This error will not clear until the actua
-
tor is re-calibrated.
This code can be caused by:
1. The motor speed exceeding the position sensors ability to
measure it at some time during operation. A non-functioning motor
brake is usually to blame.
2. The actuator is being operated where strong infrared light can
falsely trigger the slotted optocouplers, such as direct sunlight.
Shade the actuator when the cover is off for service and calibra-
tion. Do not operate the actuator with the cover off.
