Receipt & Inspection
Upon receipt of register shipment, be sure to inspect the packaging and the register assembly for any damage before signing the receipt of the shipment. Notify the delivery company about possible damage and refuse receipt of the shipment.
Registers are individually boxed and are protected with static resistant packing material. Each package is identified with the register assembly part number, description, serial number. Verify the register model is the correct model, size, and configuration as ordered. Contact your distributor if there is any discrepancy or question.
Register assemblies should be handled with appropriate methods for the size and weight involved. Appropriate clothing and shoes need to be utilized. Transport the register package to the installation site with appropriate transportation methods, careful not to damage the register.
Be careful of any loose or protruding staples from the packaging, as they can be very sharp and may potentially cause injury.
If foam has been used to protect register, carefully remove top foam layer before attempting to remove register assembly from box. Foam packaging maybe formed around the register assembly making it difficult to remove. Do not lift the register assembly by wires or anything other than the metal body of the register. Do not insert objects or cables into the register unless stated. Removing register assembly from packaging without adhering these warnings may cause serious injury to you and/or the register.
Appropriate precautions should be taken regarding any personal, environmental and material compatibility with the end use system.

“Must Know” & How To
Installation Procedure—Daisy Chain
Daisy Chain:
Daisy Chain is used for linking multiple registers together to use one printer or to link multiple registers to the database.
To Daisy Chain the Registers use a two wire 22 gauge shielded cable. Nominate one Register to be the Host.
Once you’ve chosen which Register will be the Host the other Registers will be considered the clients. Strip a small amount of wire and run the wire from slot A and B of DAISY CHAIN on the Host Unit to slot A and B of DAISY CHAIN on the Client Unit.
To tie the Client to the next Client unit on the Daisy Chain, strip a small amount of wire and run the wire from slot A and B of DAISY CHAIN to slot A and B of the next client’s DAISY CHAIN.

Trouble Shooting
Trouble Shooting
To comply with Weights & Measures requirements, it is necessary to start and stop each delivery with a fully packed hose. Normally, this will be the case. However, there are times where the hose is not fully packed (e.g. after a preset delivery). As such, the hose must be packed and the register zeroed prior to making the next deliver.
NOTE: This procedure will not work for an empty or dry hose. If more than 1 gallon or 5
Liters of liquid is required to pack the hose, a delivery ticket must be printed.
To pack the hose at the start of a delivery:
Press the Start Button, this energizes the solenoids. Allow the pump to pack the hose.
TCS 3000 Trouble Shooting Guide
The TCS3000 troubleshooting guide covers most common problem situations. Call your Total Controls Service Center for any problems that are not covered in this guide.
NOTICE DANGER
It may be necessary to break Weights & Measure seals to Serious Injury or Death may Result – Fire, Explosion, and perform certain troubleshooting steps in this guide. Contact your supervisor or local Weights & Measures authori-
Electrical Shock Hazard.
ties for information before breaking any seals.
Only trained and authorized personnel should perform troubleshooting. Use extreme caution when troubleshooting and taking all electrical measurements. Be sure that equipment is in a well ventilated area and that hazardous or flammable vapors are not and will not be present during testing. If equipment is located in a hazardous environment, it may be necessary to remove the equipment and perform troubleshooting in a safe area.
Trouble Shooting Guidelines:
1) Before attempting to troubleshoot the TCS 3000 system, become familiar with the operation and set-up of the specific
installation.
2) Make sure all electrical connections are secure and tight.
3) Make sure all terminal blocks are firmly connected.
4) ALWAYS use a good digital multimeter. Voltage levels are critical to proper system operation. Use an accurate,
reliable multimeter to test for proper voltages at the start of any service procedure. Voltage requirements are listed
under each component.
NOTE: Check for proper operating voltages before changing the circuit board. If the circuit board needs to be changed, be sure to remove all power to the TCS 3000.
5) If an error occurs during a delivery, the message will appear on the Display and print on the delivery ticket. The
delivery ticket will print an error message that can be useful in troubleshooting. This ticket will automatically print.
Examine the prover ticket to make sure all set-up fields are accurate, e.g. pulses per unit volume, temperature
coefficient, and base temperature.
6) NEVER remove a terminal block or jumper with the power on.
7) NEVER install a terminal block or jumper with the power on.
34
Trouble Shooting
8) NEVER force a terminal block into its location.
9) NEVER exchange or reposition terminal blocks on the circuit board.
10) In case of a major problem such as a burned or water-damaged circuit board, evaluate possible causes before
replacing it and turn the power back on.
11) Isolate the problem before changing the circuit board.
12) Return faulty circuit boards with the proper forms, concisely completed.
There may be several probable causes for a system malfunction. Listed on the next 3 pages are several probable causes to aid in returning the system to operation as quickly as possible. The list is not all-inclusive and should only be used as a guide.
PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Unit will not power up or there is no display
Inadequate supply voltage. +9 to 28
VDC is required for operation
1. With the key in the accessory position, check the battery voltage to the circuit board. Use the negative terminal as DC ground. While the TCS 3000 will power-up at +9VDC, it is recommended that the input be at least +12.6VDC.
2. Check the 7.5A, in-line fuse for continuity. It is located in the accessory power line. Replace if necessary.
3. If the green light blinks fast it is doing what it is supposed to, but then it will go to a slow blink. If you see red, then you do not have enough power on the register. It must see a minimum of 9vdc.
4. If the red light comes on and the unit doesn’t power-up. Check the voltage if the voltage is OK but the temperature is -20 this will indicate that the heater is warming the display to prevent any damage to the VGA display and should come-up shortly
Unit blow
7.5A Fuse
+12 VDC battery line is shorted to ground
1. For safety reasons, remove the 7.5A, in-line fuse from the accessory power cable.
2. Unscrew the 3 pin power connector. Inspect for stray wire strands and visible shorts.
3. Inspect the full length of the power cable. Look for damaged insulation, which may cause shorting between the cable and ground potential (e.g. truck frame or chassis). If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced.
4. Replace the 7.5A fuse and re-install the wires into the terminal connector.
5. If the 7.5A blows again, then replace the power cable.
6. If the 7.5A fuse blows after replacing the power cable, then replace the TCS

Power Failure appears on the delivery ticket
Power to the TCS
3000 interrupted during delivery.
Static Discharge
1. Check accessory power cable for damage. Ensure that the power, common and ground wires on power connector are secure. Located on the right hand corner of the terminal board
2. Turn on all truck accessories (headlamps, 2 way radio, heater, etc.). Engage the hose reel and monitor the DV voltage at ## using terminal ## as positive and terminal ## as ground. If the voltage drops below +10VDC, the truck electrical system may not be adequate to handle the current load for the TCS
3000. It may be necessary to upgrade the electrical system to accommodate the 3-amp TCS 3000 current requirements.
3. Verify proper grounding of the TCS 3000. Refer to the TCS 3000 Installation
Manual for proper grounding procedures.

3. If the readings are not within the above tolerances, replace the RTD
probe.
Product flow does not register on TCS
3000
Pulser shaft is not turning with product flow. Pulse Failure
1. Manually spin the pulser shaft and monitor the TCS 3000 display.
2. If the TCS 3000 displays counter increments, this may indicate a mechanical problem. Contact your TCS 3000 Service Center for assistance.
3. If the TCS 3000 display counter does not increment, see Pulser Failure.
Pulser Failure, register is not reading gallons or liters
Missing pulse counts.
Excessive reversals
Note: Pulser faults generally occur in a high vibration environment. TCS is not responsible for pulser failures caused by excessive vibration.
1. Check the pulser output.
2. Open the TCS 3000 cover by loosening the two bolts that hold the cover closed. Using a reliable multimeter, measure the following DC voltages on terminal block is connected to the circuit board. Use terminal as ground reference.
3. TERMINAL PULSER VOLTAGE
+0 VDC
+5 VDC
+3.74 TO 0 VDC TAHA1 WHILE SPININING
+0 TO 3.74 VDC TAHB1 WHILE SPINNING
4 If the following voltages are observed, check for loose pulser wiring connections. If no loose connections are found, replace the encoder.
5 Insert a ticket into the Epson printer. Begin a delivery. With product flowing through the meter, measure the following DC voltages on the terminal block.
6 TERMINAL PULSER VOLTAGE
+0 VDC
+5 VDC
+3.74 to 0 VDC TAHA1 WHILE SPINNING

PROBLEM
Valve will not open
Trouble Shooting
PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Solenoids are inactive or inoperative.
Foreign debris in system
1. Insert a delivery ticket into the Epson printer and start a delivery.
2. Start a delivery and listen for the audible clicking sound from the solenoids.
3. If there is NO audible click form the solenoid, check the voltage to Pin + and 0 V of terminal block Solenoid 1. While the TCS 3000 is still in delivery, use a reliable multimeter to measure the following DC voltages on the circuit board. Use 0 pin as a ground or frame ground.
4. If there is an audible click from the solenoid (but still no flow), this may be an indication of a mechanical problem with the main valve or its associate components. Contact your TCS3000 Service Center.
TERMINAL SOLENOID 1 for 2 VOLTAGE
9.0 VDC with plug remove VDC
2..0 VDC with solenoid connect
12.0 VDC with the solenoid energized
5. If the above voltages are correct, this may be an indication of a problem with the valve or its associated components. Contact you TCS 3000 Service Center for assistance.
6. If the above voltage are NOT correct, replace the following components with known working units until the problem is resolved: Solenoids
